This year they’ve already raised a whopping $572K as I type this. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and the good folks at Relay FM always conduct a fundraiser. Antonio García Martínez’s knee-jerk firing probably would have been reported - his hiring was news, so his firing would have been too - but I’m not sure about any of the others. If Schiffer weren’t on this beat, most of these stories would not be public. Apple’s Slack fiasco, the ( self-indulgent, in my opinion) internal letter that circulated amongst employees dissatisfied with the company’s post-COVID plans for new work-from-home policies, another internal letter asking Tim Cook to take a pro-Palestinian stance, the petition demanding an investigation into the hiring of Antonio García Martínez - all of those leaks came in the last five months, and all of them were reported first by Schiffer.
She’s on the labor beat at The Verge, not a product beat, but she’s reported more leaks from Apple than anyone in recent months - perhaps more leaks than all other reporters combined - and has established herself as a must-read reporter regarding Apple. Zoe Schiffer’s singular place in this saga is rather remarkable. The idea that it’s somehow mean-spirited or vindictive to say leakers ought to go is ludicrous. An orchestra of the world’s tiniest violins is queued up and ready to serenade them out the door.
When some of these leakers - all of whom signed contracts agreeing not to leak all of whom know that the overwhelming majority of their colleagues despise leaks - wind up getting fired, it’s on them. Leak confidential information do not belong here. We know that the leakersĬonstitute a small number of people. Or the details of a confidential meeting. As you know, we do not tolerateĭisclosures of confidential information, whether it’s product IP I want to reassure you that we are doing everything in our power Only work if we can trust that the content will stay within Apple. Opportunities to connect as a team are really important. I want you to know that I share your frustration. Product launch in which most of the details of our announcements The contents of the meeting leak to reporters. I’m writing today because I’ve heard from so many of you were were Tim Cook, in a company-wide memo leaked to Zoe Schiffer at The Verge, after a company-wide all-hands virtual meeting, portions of which leaked to Zoe Schiffer at The Verge: (If I see him backstage, I’ll try to get the scoop on Ben Simmons.) Tim Cook, in Leaked Memo, Says Employees Who Leak Memos Do Not Belong at Apple ★ Good lineup of keynote speakers too, including Don Lemon and Sixers president Daryl Morey.

I’ve known Youngmoo for a few years - this will be good. It’ll be him, interviewing me, about the stuff I do and have done. PHL Innovation Fest, in a chat with Youngmoo Kim, director of Drexel’s ExCITe Center.
