ThinkSecret.com Killed By Apple Lawyers

ThinkSecret.com Killed By Apple Lawyers
Nick Ciarelli, the proprietor of ThinkSecret.com, is the most recent victim of Apple's legal staff, who sued him for maintaining a site that encouraged the unauthorized disclosure of information on pre-released products. In a settlement announced today, Ciarelli agrees to shut down ThinkSecret.com, which will vanish from the Web very soon.I tell you, those Apple lawyers make those working for the Church of Scientology look like pansies. Score one for the corporatocracy.
