Apple and the Scalability of Secrecy 155
RobotsDinner writes "Anil Dash has a thoughtful exploration of Apple's notorious devotion to secrecy, and argues that not only is there a limit to its feasibility, but that recent events show Apple has reached that limit already. 'If the ethical argument is unpersuasive, then focus on the long-term viability of your marketing and branding efforts, and realize that a technology company that is determined to prevent information from being spread is an organization at war with itself. Civil wars are expensive, have no winners, and incur lots of casualties.'"

Thing is, I can't tell you about it since it is, itself, a secret. Sorry!

Shit you know the fanboys are angry when a run of the mill first post gets modded troll rather than offtopic or redundant. Apple fanboys are angry and they will burn a pre-school full of kids over it.
