I'm not targeting government. I'm not saying hey, I'm closing it because I don't want to give you any data. I'm saying that to protect out customers, we have to encrypt. And a side affect of that is, I don't have the data.

I am confident our best years lie ahead of us and that together we will continue to make Apple the magical place that it is.

I think anything can be forced to converge. The problem is that products are about tradeoffs, and you begin to make tradeoffs to the point where what you have left at the end of the day doesn't please anyone. You can converge a toaster and a refrigerator, but those things are probably not going to be pleasing to the user.

Gaming has kind of evolved a bit. More people play on portable devices. Where we might go in the future, we'll see. Customers love games. I'm not interested in being in the console business in what is thought of as traditional gaming. But Apple is a big player today and things in the future will only make that bigger.

Our message, to people around the country and around the world, is this: Apple is open. Open to everyone, regardless of where they come from, what they look like, how they worship or who they love.

If I know what your messages are, if I can read those, I'll probably be able to conclude where you're going, who you're with, the location the message was sent.

The reality is, is that we love competition, at Apple. We think it makes us all better. But we want people to invent their own stuff.

My business is not reading your messages. I don't have a business doing that. And it's against my values to do that. I don't want to read your private stuff.
