Apple fires engineer whose daughter showed off iPhone X while visiting father

A few days ago, my partner Jordi published a piece of news in which we could see how a young woman walked around the Apple Campus and visited her father, who at that time worked as an engineer at Apple. In the video, the young woman records herself while informing us of what she plans to do throughout the day, but what is really interesting comes from minute 2, when the daughter visits her father, and while they are eating, she is grabs his father's iPhone X and shows it to the camera while opening a few apps. What seemed to be a minor act, has ended with the dismissal of his father.

Shortly after the video was made public and viral, Apple sent an email to the young woman, Brooke Amelia Paterson urging her to remove the video from YouTube (although it is still available on other YouTube accounts) something she quickly did to try to stop her father had problems with the company. But it was too late. Brooke has posted a new video on her YouTube channel in which she explains what happened, a little background from her personal life and that his father the engineer who worked on the development of the iPhone X has been fired.

The reason for the dismissal, according to the new Brooke video, is because her father violated the rules established by Apple, including the fact that recording is not allowed on Campus, especially if it is a product that is not yet available. in the market. The video appeared to show the QR codes of company employees. In addition, in the Notes application, they included Product names that Apple has not yet officially introduced. 

If we look at the video, which I include below, and we stop at the Notes application, you cannot read anything clear what is written on them, in fact, it seems that they have been previously blurred before hanging the video. It is not the first that an employee of a technology company ends up in dismissal. A few days before the launch of the Xbox, a Microsoft employee leaked some images of what he looked like, which led to his imminent dismissal. The engineer had been with Apple for 4 years and had been part of the team that helped develop the wireless communication system for the iPhone X.

    I don't know if the father or the daughter is more mentally retarded. I have doubts.

      It would be difficult to declare a winner. They have a lot of level.

    here is a cat locked up ... if the father has let his daughter do that it is because he wanted to, don't be late ... let's see if you think that an Apple engineer is not aware of what his daughter can mess up recording that ...

    What a stupid thing. Poor unhappy retard. The father cannot be that he has not realized it, it was done to the conscience of the engineer himself but, he must be so bored with the money that he has spent all the politics by the fret!

    Well, I am very sorry for this girl. I also see her as natural and sincere. I understand a fine maybe. A couple of months without salary ... but firing him ... seems like an excess. A company that boasts of being human… cannot commit such an atrocity that affects the emotional stability of an entire family. I hope they reconsider and… see, furthermore, in that reverse attitude… a possibility of good publicity for a brand that was a flag of technical quality. Hopefully it also rectifies and defends human quality by conjugating the verb magnanimity or forgiveness.
