Apple sues over product leak
Oopsie.
The complaint alleges that “an unidentified individual, acting alone or in concert with others, has recently misappropriated and disseminated through Web sites confidential information about an unreleased Apple product.”
MacRumors reports that it is presumably over either iPod Flash details, an Apple-Sirus deal, or an iPhone device.
The moral of the story? Don’t leak product details!

[B]UPDATE![/B] The Mac Observer reports that three rumor sites have been subpoenaed: AppleInsider, PowerPage, and Think Secret. Stay with Deep Thought for the latest on the Rumorgate scandal (well, it’s not really a scandal, but using the word “scandal” boosts interest 
).

Mr. Schiller told me that these people are having legal action brought down on them because they were trying to get people to break NDA’s. Which isn’t cool. Speculation is one thing, but trying to force someone to reveal private information is sneaky and people should know better.
