To me this looks like a career move by the prosecutor who wants to get some convicted hackers on his CV, which will look good when it comes to promotion time as these crimes get more and more relevant. The US justice system seems to have de

I find it funny how everybody here tries to spin this to portray Apple in a positive light, even putting the blame on Microsoft somehow. Face it, this would be a big deal for any other large company. When a tech giant builds his latest proj
