It's apparently no longer a secret: Apple would force some of its employees to wear a body-worn camera around their chest to monitor their actions. The objective here seems to limit leaks concerning prototypes or products which have not yet been announced. We know in fact that the apple brand likes to keep thesecreton such devices until the last moment;we should also discover new ones tomorrow.
But according to information just published, the official reason given by Apple to justify this use - contrary to its promises of confidentiality - would be the fight againstharassment. Which echoes therecent setbacks of the firm in this area.
A fallible system?
In reality, everything suggests that this is more of a measure aimed at verifying that no technician working on a possible next iPhone takes the opportunity to photograph it without the knowledge of their management. But it is always difficult to be sure; it is enough to capture the image off-camera to avoid this security. In addition, videos recorded by the bodycam are difficult to admit in court.
What Apple would be happy to do is simply issuewarningswhen the user's movements are suspicious or if a stolen photo includes settings similar to where they are working. Effective ? Impossible to know, because no figures are communicated by the company on this subject.
Very famous equipment
The models in which Apple has reportedly invested are brand camerasAxon, which is also found among certain law enforcement bodies, notably to avoid police violence or to serve as proof in the event of an offense.
This is what Apple employees have to wear when they work on unreleased products.
But things leak anyways…
