They damaged the reputation of the guy who lost it. If Apple decided the breach was serious enough to warrant termination, how does that affect the hireability of somebody whose major claim to fame is "lost secret prototype while drinking and exposed company secrets to hailstorm of press?" Why I'm annoyed at Gizmodo is the harping they did on this guy's personal life. Shortly after releasing the iPhone story, they then ran a story on the guy who lost it, including screenshots of his Twitter page. Then, for no apparently reasonable explanation, write another post with just the Twitter screenshot showing how it was his birthday. What the hell, Jesus Diaz (main writer of all the iPhone-related posts)? Does the phrase "full disclosure" mean you have to be a dick, too? It seems like a pretty petty way of increasing pageviews, but suppose I shouldn't expect more integrity from a Gawker Media site.
