Apple has sued the well-known leaker Jon Prosser for the alleged theft of trade secrets related to iOS 26. Prosser has been accused of tasking another man, Michael Ramacciotti, with secretly accessing an Apple employee’s development iPhone and using that information to report on Apple’s planned changes in the then-unannounced iOS 26.

Apple accuses YouTube influencer Jon Prosser and an accomplice of illegally obtaining and releasing trade secrets regarding its iOS 26 operating system.

Apple claims that Ramacciotti allegedly infiltrated the company phone (which was running a development version of the new iOS) and showed off new features to Prosser over a video call, the contents of which were reportedly used to come up with renders for Prosser's reports.
