Prototype iPhone plot thickens
April 28th, 2010 by Samantha
The other day the internet was set ablaze by the leaking of the new iPhone prototype, apparently left in a bar by an Apple tech. It then went on to be picked up by someone who sold the item to tech news site Gizmodo for $5,000. Now it appears the police are involved.
The story is getting very complicated now, with Gizmodo trying to argue journalistic immunity as a reason the police search of the reporter’s house is illegal, while others on the internet are saying that it is a simple case of handling stolen goods and therefore a legal search. Apple have remained remarkably silent.
Whatever happens, this will probably set legal precedent in how journalists can get a hold of leaked materials and whether or not they can be held accountable for their actions in this arena.
