“Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday took a thinly veiled shot at Apple, by casting the social network as a defender of privacy willing to resist cooperating with governments that have poor human rights records.⠀
⠀
The comments, in a lengthy blog post by Zuckerberg on Wednesday, drew an implicit contrast with Apple's controversial practices in China and marked the latest flare-up in a long-running battle between the two tech giants over consumer privacy.⠀
⠀
The social-networking company has sacrificed business to protect its customers, Zuckerberg said. Facebook has intentionally chosen not to put its servers in countries that have a poor track record on human rights, even though those decisions have meant that it can't offer its services in those places, he said. ⠀
⠀
"That's a tradeoff we're willing to make," Zuckerberg said. "I think it's important for the future of the internet and privacy," he continued, "that our industry continues to hold firm against storing people's data in places where it won't be secure." “ - BusinessInsider⠀
