Tim Cook and the future of Apple

Stating that "wearables are incredibly interesting," Cook, the CEO of Apple Inc. reveals the future of Apple products in relation to wearables. Hinting at future "iProducts," Cook states that the "wrist is interesting," a place for next generation accessories. He anticipates that many new products will come out in the coming months, including the push of the Pebble Smart Watch. However, Cook does not see much appeal with Google's Glasses. He calls them "unfashionable" and "obtrusive."

In the interview, Cook also addressed the criticism his company has received in regards to the exploitation of tax loopholes. To minimize their taxes, Apple has moved parts of their profit to subsidiaries.

This relates to Law 12 as taxes are related to law. Rather than paying taxes in the United States, Apple has chosen to minimize these costs by moving it to foreign places.
