Earlier this week, Jon Prosser, who is being sued by Apple for allegedly stealing trade secrets, told The Verge that he has been “in active communications with Apple since the beginning stages of this case.” But Apple, in a new filing on Thursday that was reported on by MacRumors, said that while Prosser has “publicly acknowledged” Apple’s complaint, he “has not indicated whether he will file a response to it or, if so, by when.”
Prosser didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment from The Verge. Apple sued Prosser, who posted videos earlier this year showing off features that would debut in iOS 26 ahead of their official announcement, and another defendant, Michael Ramacciotti, in July. The company alleged that Prosser and Ramacciotti had “a coordinated scheme to break into an Apple development iPhone, steal Apple’s trade secrets, and profit from the theft.”
A clerk already entered a default against Prosser last week, which means he hasn’t responded to the lawsuit and that the case can move forward. In Thursday’s filing, Apple said it “intends to file a default judgment seeking damages and an injunction against him.”
