Apple CEO Tim Cook addressed NSA surveillance concerns in an interview with ABC's David Muir which will air tonight.

ABC released another teaser clip from the interview in which Cook says the NSA 'would have to cart us out in a box' before getting access to Apple's servers.

"Much of what has been said isn't true. There is no backdoor. The government doesn't have access to our servers. They would have to cart us out in a box for that, and that just will not happen. We feel that strongly about it. But I do want to be transparent because i think transparency will put everything in perspective."

Take a look at the clip below. We'll post more from the interview once it becomes available. Follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.

Duh! That's why they don't even bother asking. They've got their own backdoors into every site/server, and if they don't they just tape the wires leading to the server farms. The NSA needs to be shut down because they'll never stop unless they're prevented from doing whatever the hell they want! Most of what they're now doing was never authorized by Congress, it's just what they figure they can get away with.

Get out. MS and Apple invented the computer?!? Anyway only the founders have the balls and cred to stand up to the government. One is dead and the other is busy giving away money.

Regardless of what the truth behind it, we shouldn't kid ourselves by thinking that Tim will come out and publicly say that it is true.
