What do you think an intentional leak is?

The last section specifically calls out an apple example

Provoking, the fourth type of leak, involves companies leaking truthful information in the hopes of obtaining useful information. In “How Apple Does Controlled Leaks” John Martellaro suggests that before launching the iPad, Apple may have released tablet information early for several reasons including wanting to gauge reaction to a US$1,000 price point; to panic or confuse competitors; or to whet analyst expectations. Hannah et al. caution that provoking could backfire if affected parties act on information they assume to be final but that subsequently turns out not to be, negatively affecting a company’s reputation.

my favourite park ranger quote was talking about why bear proof bear garbage containers weren’t better. The answer was along the lines of there’s a siginificat overlap between cleaver bears, and not so cleaver people.

you have to account for more than average, you have yo account for below it, so that its accesaible to more than 50% of people.

“Put the thing in the slot”.

Which slot? Where?

“Formatting it”

Format a drive? What’s that?

“Its nor brain surgery”.

Your assuming a tech literacy that simply doesnt exisit in the general populace.

All your points about HDDs being physical assume you have computer knowledge to know what to do with a HDD.

There’s USB ones, but that’s what your limited to when it comes to casual users who just want it to work.

Everyone old enough knows how to handle a CD.
