How does Apple manage to keep their advertising and web team so quiet and leak free? You'd think the web team espessially would know about products if they have to work on the webpages.

    My guess is their highly paid and in constant fear of Steve Jobs.

    If they say anything, they get fired. How's that for a start?

    We'll I'd imagine the web and advertising team is large enough not to be able to pin point any single person for a leak. I think I agree with the well paid thing.

    Being able to be a smug bastard beats losing your job, that's why.

    probably people in their late 20s or older who better understand resposability (as well as getting well paid)



    I just look at myself.. I've been on these boards a long time, and an Apple fanatic since the 80s... but either the "effect" is wearing off, or I can control my emotions better

    They all eventually are dedicated to the platform and have no interest at

    all to bring any kind of harm to apple. They live for Apple and probably

    would die for them. Guess what, i can understand this attitude.

    Let's leep going though. First, they get fired. Then they get prosecuted for violating their strict NDAs. They are forced to pay restitution for damages Apple has suffered. Oh, they can't find another job anywhere in this universe. Let's not forget that.

    I was reading somewhere once that Apple has different internal codenames for each project, that they give to each departments so they can pinpoint which department leaked the information.
