Apple Sues YouTuber Jon Prosser Over iOS 26 Leaks (macrumors.com) 9
Apple has filed a lawsuit against YouTuber Jon Prosser and Michael Ramacciotti for misappropriation of trade secrets related to iOS 26 leaks published earlier this year. The complaint alleges Prosser and Ramacciotti conspired to access a development iPhone belonging to Apple employee Ethan Lipnik, acquiring his passcode and using location-tracking to determine when he "would be gone for an extended period."
Apple claims Ramacciotti accessed Lipnik's device and made a FaceTime call to Prosser showing iOS 26 features, which Prosser recorded and used to create rendered mockups for his January, March, and April videos. Lipnik's employment was terminated, and Apple seeks an injunction against further disclosure plus damages.

Ask the guy who was fired if that was “staged” too.
I believe California employment laws are no pushover. If a wrongful termination turd is something Apple feels like it can polish up and shine for shits and profits sake, I’d question if they’re taking marketing advice from Bud Light.

Releases 19 to 25 were so uninteresting that Apple skipped them entirely!
The good news is that we only have seven decades until iOS 95.
