More likely Apple reaches out to him because he is by far the most influential Apple website outside of Apple
I also think he is one of the most levelheaded apple-centric websites out there. Gruber talks a lot about premium products (not just apple) and their success in various markets -- DF is like a premium tech/apple/good taste blogzine and I imagine that his style appeals to a lot of people at Apple, whether they reach out to him or not (and "legally" or not)
- slantyyz 16y agoGruber is fantastic when he's not in "scandal" mode. The site quality degrades significantly, however, when he latches onto a "scandal", whether it be about stolen iphones or illegitimate wi-fi security claims. With his recent ad nauseum stolen phone coverage, DF has felt more like an overwrought Entertainment Tonight scandal episode. I've found the best Gruber reading algorithm is: if (post < 2 paragraphs) { worth bookmarking } else { mark as read }
