Tim Cook (Apple CEO) told NPR: ‘But the reality is that if you have an open door in your software for the good guys, the bad guys get in there too.’

‘But what they [the customer] don't want to do, they don't want your email to be read, & then to pick up on keywords in your email & then to use that information to then market you things on a different application that you're using ... If you're in our News app, & you're reading something, we don't think that in the News app that we should know what you did with us on the Music app — not to trade information from app to app to app to app.’ – Apple CEO Tim Cook, interviewed by NPR
