Apple reportedly fires engineer over early iPhone X leak

Brooke Amelia Peterson

Apple has reportedly fired one of its engineers after his daughter, Brooke Amelia Peterson, posted a video of the iPhone X before the official launch.

She posted a short video to YouTube from the Apple campus, early last week.

One segment, filmed from Apple’s campus, showed off her father’s pre-release iPhone X – the highly-anticipated super-flagship phone due to be released on November 3.

In the video, she visits her father on Apple’s campus in Cupertino for what seems like dinner. As they munch on pizzas in the company’s cafeteria, Amelia’s father hands her his iPhone X to test. That’s when YouTube viewers got about 45 seconds of footage of Amelia scrolling through various screens on the new design.

However, Apple is yet to confirm that the man has been fired.
