The controvesial missing iPhone

Posted in iPhone

Where it went, nobody knows. In the list of the people who may have it, is the name of the Gizmodo Tech editor as well. His home was raided to see if he has that somewhere. It was reported that a prototype of future iPhone went missing. This is certainly an issue for the companies to protect its prototypes. Gizmodo leaked the photos and videos of the new iPhone on its website. It is understood that some transaction took place in exchange of the iPhone with whom so ever who had access to that. Google has veil of secrecy on its products. It is said many a times; even engineers do not know what they are creating. If this act has been committed by the employee of the Google, certainly he would be shown the door for breaching the corporate security and leaking the secrets. There is difference between rumors and hearsay accounts. Anyone who has access to something which has not been seen by the world so far, must respect that a company has invested millions into creating the product. The prototype testing takes place at the third party offices or by the outsourcing providers. These incidents do happen but the gravity of the situation is that if competitor copies the prototypes and claims their own product is almost same? There are court cases and suites in the legal scenario.
