In a bold move challenging privacy norms, Apple is now facing a lawsuit that accuses the tech giant of spying on employees’ personal devices and iCloud accounts. This case has stirred up serious concerns about workers’ rights in the age of digital surveillance.
Apple has been hit with a lawsuit for allegedly monitoring employees’ personal devices and iCloud accounts without consent. The complaint, filed by Amr Bhakta, a former digital advertising employee at Apple, claims that the company encouraged workers to install software on their personal devices, giving Apple access to their private emails, photos, health data, and more.
The lawsuit also reveals that Apple has strict policies preventing employees from discussing their work conditions or salaries with the media. Bhakta said he was even instructed to remove information about his job from his LinkedIn profile.
This controversy has sparked a debate about privacy, freedom of speech, and the boundaries tech companies should respect when it comes to employees’ personal lives. With the digital age rapidly evolving, this case may set a precedent for how companies handle privacy in the workplace.
