Now, its Google and Facebook that are squarely in Europes regulatory sights \u2014 while Cook <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/tim-cook-apple-privacy-brussels-data-protection-facebook-google\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">can tout Apples long-standing concern for privacy<\/a> as badge of honor that sets his company apart, and in some ways above, other Silicon Valley giants.<\/p>\n<p>As Cook gives a keynote speech to many of the worlds data protection regulators gathered in Brussels \u2014 a town increasingly at the forefront of the worlds regulation of tech \u2014 he is even expected to go so far as to call for a comprehensive U.S. privacy law, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/tim-cook-apple-privacy-brussels-data-protection-facebook-google\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">prepared remarks seen by POLITICO.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will never achieve technologys true potential without the full faith and confidence of the people who use it,\u201d Cook will tell the Brussels audience Wednesday. \u201cWe are optimistic about technologys awesome potential for good. But we know that it wont happen on its own.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>EU-tax overdrive<\/h3>\n<p>And yet, theres a problem lurking in the background of Cooks privacy message, which is aligned with Apples focus on selling hardware and not on harvesting peoples digital information. The companys <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/ireland-signs-landmark-agreement-to-recover-apple-taxes\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tax woes in Europe<\/a> have not gone away.<\/p>\n<p>Both Apple and Dublin are appealing the 2016 multibillion-euro tax ruling, and the company refutes allegations that it shirks its obligations, claiming its the worlds largest corporate taxpayer. Still, the European Union is not slowing down, with officials now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/pro\/emmanuel-macron-eu-digital-tax-political-push\/?utm_source=POLITICO.EU&amp;utm_campaign=7f27c0d935-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_10_23_07_48&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_10959edeb5-7f27c0d935-189694089\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">haggling over new digital tax proposals<\/a> that would force many of Silicon Valleys biggest names to fork over an even greater slice of their revenue generated inside the 28-member bloc.<\/p>\n<p>Such digital policymaking \u2014 seen by its proponents as necessary to rein in techs perceived excesses, or as a protectionist grab by its opponents to support Europes legacy industries \u2014 has made Brussels, more than Washington, the center of the battle over who gets to set the rules of the road for the global digital economy.<\/p>\n<p>With its stance toward privacy and tax, Apple finds itself at the center of this tussle, one that has pitted many of Silicon Valleys tech giants, let alone national lawmakers, on different sides when it comes to handling peoples data online, paying taxes worldwide and promoting competition across the digital world.<\/p>\n<h3>Focus on privacy<\/h3>\n<p>Cooks strategy to focus on privacy is a practical one. Unlike Facebook and Google, whose advertising-based businesses have both been recently hit with scandals over how they handle peoples data, Apple has sidestepped much of the recent so-called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/europe-us-tech-techclash-tax-competition-data-protection-vestager\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">techlash<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone maker generates almost all of its income from selling hardware like smartphones and laptops, and so has not fallen into the same privacy-related traps that have engulfed others. Facebook <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/facebook-cambridge-analytica-fine-ico-information-commissioner-elizabether-denham-brexit\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">publicly acknowledged<\/a> this summer that up to 87 million of its users may have had their information illegally handled by Cambridge Analytica, a British data firm.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/GettyImages-857395518-714x452.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>European Commissioner for Competition Margrethe Vestager | Emmanuel Dunand\/AFP via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>For Apple, whose high-priced gadgets made the Cupertino, California-based company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/business-45050213\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">the worlds most valuable firm<\/a>, a strong stance on data protection \u2014 once seen as a topic in which only the most tech-savvy users were interested \u2014 has become a strong selling point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApple is a different animal compared to Googles search engine or a social network,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/edps.europa.eu\/about-edps\/members-mission\/supervisors\/giovanni-buttarelli_en\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Giovanni Buttarelli<\/a>, the European Data Protection Superviseor, who first met Cook last year in Milan and invited him to speak in Brussels this week. \u201cHe will surprise others in the debate around digital ethics.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Play down tax<\/h3>\n<p>Cook is likely to take a lap of honor among global data protection officials who have gathered in Brussels this week.<\/p>\n<p>But the uncomfortable question about how much tax Apple pays worldwide will not be far from the surface \u2014 particularly as EU officials <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/eu-takes-on-digital-giants-with-new-revenue-tax-google-facebook-twitter-trade\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">move steadily closer<\/a> to agreeing to new digital taxes aimed mostly at U.S. tech companies.<\/p>\n<p>In announcing the record state-aid tax charge against Apples activities in Ireland, Vestager, Europes competition czar, accused the company of paying less than a 1 percent corporate tax rate on its European profits in 2014, allegations that Apple vehemently denies.
