Apple
is very protective of its trade secrets, particularly unauthorized
leaks of information about upcoming products. Case in point: The tech
giant reportedly fired an engineer after his daughter recorded a video showing
off features on a pre-release iPhone X at Caffè Macs, the company’s
high-end employee cafeteria at its Cupertino, California headquarters,
last week.
Per the Verge,
YouTuber Brooke Amelia Peterson says her father lost his job as an
Apple engineer after she recorded a short video showing off the device’s
design and a few features such as the Cover Sheet notification screen
and Animoji. Though other people had recorded videos showing off the
phone prior to Peterson’s upload, Apple has a strict policy on how
employees are expected to handle confidential in-house information, and
Peterson’s footage featured both private employee-only QR codes and a
notes app with product codenames. As Engadget noted,
Apple also has a “general prohibition of recording video on campus” to
prevent the leak of corporate secrets. Caffè Macs in particular is
supposed to be a secure, private area where employees can chat without
fear of being filmed, per 9 to 5 Mac.
