Brooke Amelia Peterson published a vlog earlier this week, which included a trip to the Apple campus to visit her father and see an unreleased iPhone X. Peterson\u2019s video was quickly picked up by sites like\u00a0<em>9to5Mac<\/em>, and it spread even further on YouTube.<\/p>\n<p id=\"yws7D5\">Peterson now claims her father has been fired as a result of her video. In a tearful video, Peterson explains her father violated an Apple company rule by allowing her to film the unreleased handset at Apple\u2019s campus. Apple reportedly requested that Peterson remove the video, but it was clearly too late as the content spread further and further.<\/p>\n<p>The video itself\u00a0may have seemed like an innocent hands-on, but it did include footage of an iPhone X with special employee-only QR codes. A notes app was also shown on the iPhone X in the video, which appeared to include codenames of unreleased Apple products. Filming on Apple\u2019s campus is strictly prohibited, so filming an unreleased iPhone X is a definite rule violation.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve seen similar dismissals in the past. A Microsoft employee was dismissed after his son\u00a0posted pictures\u00a0of the Xbox 360 before its release. The Apple engineer in question had worked at the company for around four years, building the iPhone RF and wireless circuit design.\u00a0<em>The Verge<\/em>\u00a0reached out to Apple to confirm the dismissal, but the company has not yet responded to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"l-sidebar-fixed l-segment l-article-body-segment\">\n<div class=\"l-col__main\">\n<div class=\"c-video-embed--media\">\n<div class=\"p-scalable-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XQzGKwjr_js?rel=0&amp;\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-entry-content\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Source: The Verge<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple has reportedly dismissed an engineer after his daughter\u2019s iPhone X hands-on video went viral on YouTube.
