Edited the entry to read that Nick's name was "unknown outside the Mac journalism community". Many Mac journalists - myself included - knew and had met Nick long before his nom de plume was exposed. Ianbetteridge 14:26, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was trying to correct the errors in the last sentence of the first paragraph, which reads "However, there has since been a few news stories posted on the since, so the fate of the site is uncertain." It should read: "there have since been...posted since...." But when you go to the edit page, that sentence is missing and this one appears instead: "The site will continue publishing through February 14, 2008" Yet that edit does not appear on the published page. Something weird here; is it tampering?? WLH, 1/15/2008. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.225.247.116 (talk) 16:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Accuracy?[edit]

Isn't Apple suing him about the Asteroid leak specifically? This story doesn't even mention Asteroid, and strongly implies he's being sued over the other stuff. -- Steven Fisher 15:18, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No - Apple is not suing Think Secret over the Asteroid leak specifically. Instead, it is suing Think Secret over a set of stories from December 2004, which include ones on the "headless iMac", iWork, and iLife. See http://news.com.com/Apple+suit+foreshadows+coming+products/2100-1047_3-5513582.html and http://www.thinksecret.com/news/antislapp.html Ianbetteridge 15:26, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't trust thinksecret for information on the suit, since anything on that site is painted with the brush Nick chooses. The CNet link seems to suggest ThinkSecret is facing two suits: "In a separate action, it is suing unnamed individuals who leaked details about a forthcoming music device code-named Asteroid. In the latter case, Apple won court permission to issue subpoenas to Think Secret and two other Mac enthusiast sites in an effort to ferret out who leaked the information." -- Steven Fisher 20:06, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

403[edit]

403 error? I get a blank page. —[semicolons]— 22:26, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability[edit]

I've declined the PROD based on this Google News Archive search. The website was tied up extensively with Apple regarding a trade secrets lawsuit. It may not be enough to establish notability but means that, in my opinion, this subject is not suitable for a PROD. OlYeller^Talktome 16:52, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
