Dude stole his friends passcode to his internal only development iPhone and then makes a video for his shitty YouTube channel never thinking through the consequences. He got his friend fired from Apple over it too. Shit guy right there.

I think you’re mixing the story up a bit- the guy that got into the phone didn’t have a YouTube channel, he sold it to someone with a YouTube channel. Still stupid in any case!

Allegedly, though that does seem to likely be the case.

There’s a time when leaking to the press is an important option to have. Had this been all about Apple misbehaving in some manner, then nobody would take their side here. But breaking into someone’s laptop and stealing confidential info just to leak some stuff about their new UI is not the way to go. Fuck that.
