Apple wins round in lawsuit against
rumour sites
03/14/2005 04:23 PMA California judge on Friday ruled that Apple has the right to
subpoena the records of the three Macintosh sites that recently
published details on an unreleased Apple product.
Apple filed a civil complaint against unnamed individuals who
allegedly stole trade secrets and posted detailed information about an
unannounced Apple product last December. "Apple's DNA is innovation
and the protection of our trade secrets is crucial to our success,"
the company said in a statement in December.
Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge James P. Kleinberg ruled that
Apple's interests in protecting trade secrets outweighed any interest
the public may have in the information, according to CNET.
"The public has had, and continues to have, a profound interest in
gossip about Apple," Kleinberg said. "Therefore, it is not surprising
that hundreds of thousands of 'hits' on a Web site about Apple have
and will happen. But an interested public is not the same as the
public interest."

Spanish custom to publish false news
today features new Apple rumour
12/28/2004 01:02 PMAn article claiming that Apple plans to build its own mobile carrier
is a hoax, according to the Spanish website which published it today.
A link from the news story on CanalPDA.com leads to a separate
posting, which states: “The 28 of December, day of the Innocent
Saints, has restored in Spanish mass media the custom to publish the
false news, ‘inocentadas’, in which humor and the talent are
indispensable ingredients.”
The hoax claimed that “recent rumors about the iPhone have turned out
to be just the tip of the iceberg: the big news is that Apple will
become soon a mobile carrier.” The article went on to say that “in a
CanalPDA.com exclusive, a top Apple executive confirmed that the
company plans to build its own mobile carrier. According to Albert
Slope, VP of Apple's recently created Mobile Platforms and Services
business unit, "creating our own mobile carrier is the next logical
step in our strategy of providing the Apple experience to the users of
our products. We believe that existing carriers are not offering the
flexibility not the performance consumers deserve, so we have decided
to move forward, providing cellphone users a full, personal
communications and information environent, with the user-friendliness
that has become synonymous with Apple's products and services".”

million, or 8 cents a share. That's up from $50.8 million, or 4 cents

minority-owned. (As a black man, the owner, Jabulani Ntshangase,
belongs to the country's majority.)

03/17/2005 03:56 AMDavid Pescovitz:
The Vatican has
appointed Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone to speak out against Dan
Brown's
The
Da Vinci Code. From Reuters:
"A lot of novels do good but this book is rotten food
... it does harm, not good," Bertone said in the 30-minute interview
in the offices of the Vatican's doctrinal department.
"This book is a sack full of lies against the Church, against the real
history of Christianity and against Christ himself," said Bertone,
archbishop of northern Genoa.... "I would ask the author of this book
and similar ones to be more respectful because freedom of expression
has limits when it does not respect others," he said...
Bertone said he was stunned that Catholic bookstores, even those near
the Vatican, were selling the book.
"It's impossible to pull the book off shelves of general bookstores
... but certainly not selling it in Catholic bookstores would be a
good first step," he said.
