"The person who found and sold an Apple iPhone prototype says he regrets not doing more to return the device to its owner, according to a statement provided by his attorney Thursday in response to queries from Wired.com.
Brian J. Hogan, a 21-year-old resident of Redwood City, California, says although he was paid by tech site Gizmodo, he believed the payment was for allowing the site exclusive access to review the phone. Gizmodo emphasized to him "that there was nothing wrong in sharing the phone with the tech press," according to his attorney Jeffrey Bornstein."

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
Poor fella,
Sometimes greed gets into the head and what could've been a simple return to the owner, instead personal greed ignited a hunt by the Apple's Gestapo.
Hope he still got his head after dealing with all of this.
HEIL JOBS!
Poor guy, thing is most other companies wouldn't care about such a leak but apple does, a few years back there was reportedly a leak about a router from apple and the guy who leaked it was sued like mad. This has really advertised the iPhone a lot but apple won't see that.
Screw the money and screw apple, I know what I would've done.
"Will it Blend?"
Eh, hes still alive. I bet the dude originally lost it is in someones trunk dead by now.
why didn't the dude kept it anonymous? i would of met in person and asked for cash, the run off into the night...or sh!t just use a diffremt name?
