Apple CEO Tim Cook has called for new digital privacy laws in the United States, warning that the collection of huge amounts of personal data by companies is harming society.

Speaking at a privacy conference in Brussels, Cook gave an impassioned and forceful speech. He reiterated familiar talking points, like Apple’s commitment to privacy (and, by implication, its rivals lack of commitment) while spelling out concerns regarding data collection, surveillance, and manipulation that have dogged tech companies recently.
