Apple leakers claimed that they received some warnings coming from lawyers allegedly representing the tech giant firm. One of these affected product leakers is Kang.
"Since I have never published undisclosed product pictures or sold his information, Apple must take exception to riddles and dreams about its undisclosed projects," said Kang in his latest Weibo post.
As of the moment, Apple leaks are vaguely considered dreams since they provide some insiders with a fun mechanism without giving too much information. This trend was popularized in the past few years, with the likes of Kang and L0vetodream.
These leakers usually post their gathered details on various social media platforms.
However, the most used one is Twitter. However, these leakers now need to be more careful when it comes to disseminating details of upcoming Apple gadgets, such as laptops, smartphones, and other devices.
Apple Warns Leakers!
According to MacRumors' latest report, the current issue is quite serious. The tech giant manufacturer is allegedly taking screenshots from Kang's Weibo account, which contains various posts about Apple's product problems, release dates, and other sensitive information.
The company claimed that Kang also posts some purchase suggestions, which could affect the company's upcoming products. Apple explained that the leaked details of its unannounced gadgets could give its competitors valuable information, which can be used to develop devices that would affect the company's sales.
However, Kang is not happy with the current situation. He said that in Apple's logic, dreaming about the company's upcoming products could still violate Apple's confidentiality mechanism.
He added that even though he doesn't post any photo or video about an upcoming Apple device, he is still targeted by the giant tech firm. If the leakers continue to receive these warnings, consumers would likely have less information about the most awaited devices of Apple.
These leaks help people understand what's coming them, such as new iOS versions and next-gen smartphones like iPhone 13.
Is Leaking Illegal?
Freedom Forum Institute explained that some leaks could be illegal. However, it will still depend on what info you are going to post.
Right now, there are various laws that apply to leakers. Here are some of them:
It's a crime to disclose information related to national defense with the intent of injuring the United States or aiding a foreign nation.
It's illegal to disclose classified information about communication intelligence.
