San Francisco: Former Apple employee Simon Lancaster, who has been sued for allegedly leaking information to an unnamed publication, has denied the allegations in a court filing that he disseminated trade secrets in exchange for favourable coverage of a start-up he had invested in.
In March, documents were made public accusing Lancaster, a former materials lead at Apple, of accessing data outside of his job’s scope, then selling it on to a media outlet.
