What does DA stand for?

Please explain where spirit and ethics that are broken in your opinion.

AFAIK, Gizmodo's business is that: gather sources, inform interested people what it can. If we forget letter of law, this is how i see it:

(1) No where i see the proof that it was stolen. (2) Gizmodo paid the guy some amount to get pictures, etc. and is actually willing to return it to Apple. I still don't see the problem if it gets returned to Apple. (3) Gizmodo revealed the Apple employee's name to public, which is kinda crossing the line -- but given that a guy recently committed suicide for such a fault, i give Gizmodo a pass.



but given that a guy recently committed suicide for such a fault, i give Gizmodo a pass.

Having your major screw-up exposed for the entire world to see is liable to make you less prone to suicide? I hope no one ever decides to be that kind to me...


DA stands for District Attorney.
