Gizmodo Blows Whistle On 4G iPhone Loser

Stoobalou writes "Not content with its iPhone scoop, Gizmodo has probably ruined the career of a young engineer. The tech blog last night exposed the name of the hapless Apple employee who had one German beer too many and left a prototype iPhone G4 in a California bar some 20 miles from Apple's Infinite Loop campus. Was that really necessary?" It also came out that they paid $5K for the leaked prototype and that Apple wants it back.

    I wouldn't be happy, but then again it's the rational thing to do. I don't think I'd begrudge them much, and I don't think I'd have much of a problem doing the same. Who knows, it'd depend on a number of factors.

    Laws about having to return found property are commie bullshit.
