John Gruber tells Think Secret: “You’re no New York Times.” And you know what? I agree with him. People are jumping all over this lawsuit as some sort of sky-is-falling, First Amendment, bloggers-versus-The-Man type of thing, when in reality it’s about a crappy gossip site publishing trade secrets and trying to claim it’s legitimate journalism. It’s laughable. I also don’t buy the argument that Think Secret’s “reporting” is good for Apple and that it doesn’t hurt the company. Gruber effectively debunked that myth for me a few months ago.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
