Apple Criticized Over Confidentiality

In a dramatic turn at Britain’s high courts, Apple, the global tech colossus, finds itself at the heart of a tempestuous dispute. The contention? A vast expanse of documents tagged ‘confidential’, as it grapples with a colossal £853 million lawsuit anchored by millions of disgruntled iPhone users.

Tribunal Echoes Discontent Over Confidential Labeling

Justin Turner KC, the stalwart helming the Competition Appeal Tribunal, likened Apple’s vast swathes of ‘confidential’ documents to a murky pond with merely “one or two isolated nuggets” that truly demand secrecy.

He beckoned Apple to reconsider its definition of confidential, alluding to power-saving features in 2015 iPhones that seemingly pulled the plug on them without notice.

“For confidentiality to mask as a litigation strategy, is like a chameleon blending into its background, deceptive and inconspicuous,” remarked Turner, subtly critiquing Apple’s tactics.

He resonated the public sentiment, emphasizing that judgments should not be cloaked in mystery, especially when it orbits the experiences of millions in the UK.
