"A trial court ruled last year that if a journalist publishes information that a business claims to be a trade secret, this act destroys constitutional protection for the journalist's confidential sources and unpublished materials."
What are the rules for claiming a "trade secret"? Is the model of my KVM switch a trade secret? What about the model number of the copier down the hall? My cube number? Come on...
Apple has a right to defends its "real trade secrets", but it better wake up and see that they are no longer making computers just for teachers and artists. They have opened OS X (and their very company) to a world that they were not expecting. It is the largest paradox box they have ever seen and they better learn how to deal with it quick.
