All the chap did was accidentally leave his phone in a bar. Presumably he had it out for dog-fooding style testing. Gray Whoever (I've forgotten already) is hardly a name that will live in infamy.
Unless the next time we see him is in a grainy beheading video featuring Steve Jobs wielding a large machete.
All this 'OMG STOLEN' drama is totally over the top - I think some people are just looking for an angle at which to get outraged at a newsworthy product leak.
- CWuestefeld 17y agoAll this 'OMG STOLEN' drama is totally over the top +1 for that. I haven't even looked at the Gizmodo page in question. That's not for any moral outrage, but because I just don't care. A new Apple product is not going to change my life by one iota. Hearing about an Apple product under development makes even less difference to me. I have to say: Apple's marketing -- and this is part of it, make no mistake, even if it was precipitated by accident -- are the masters. That they can get the press into such a tizzy, and have such a legion of fanboys, for nothing but a handful of tech products, is what's truly remarkable -- and makes me kind of sad.

- confuzatron 17y agoOkay, but empathy towards a /corporation/ for something secret being leaked? Not so much. Maybe you're talking about Gary Wotsit being outed - I wasn't referring to that.
