Donald Trump is telling Americans they should boycott Apple products until the technology giant complies with a court order to help investigators break into an iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino mass shooters.

Trump made the comment during a question-and-answer session in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, where he's campaigning ahead of Saturday's first-in-the-South Republican presidential primary.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has said that complying with the federal government's request would risk compromising the data of its customers worldwide.

Trump says Cook wants to prove ``how liberal he is.'' He told the crowd to ``boycott Apple until such time as they give up that security.''  (Associated Press)
