- Apple filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging conspiracy with former employees to steal confidential information.
- A former Apple employee, Chang Liu, accessed Apple servers after termination due to an authentication bug, downloading sensitive files on unreleased products.
- Apple claims Liu failed to report the bug and instead used it to access confidential hardware files and mocked the company in internal messages.
- The bug was quickly fixed by Apple, and investigations suggest it was not widely exploited by other affected users.
