Apple has not yet issued a public response.

Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, charged that the CIA effectively “became a giant hacker spy agency,” according to DW.com. “This hacker CIA then stockpiled an enormous quantity of cyberweapons - hundreds of millions of lines of code, more than all of Facebook, in cyberweapons. And then it lost control of all of them.”

Assange, meanwhile, has claimed that only one percent of the CIA files WikiLeaks has in its possession have been published.
