Collateral Damage: A talk with Desicanuk and Nessence

DrunkenBlog has a fascinating discussion with two of the people who are being sued by Apple for leaking a beta version of Mac OS X "Tiger.":
Before I found out I was being sued, they called me up to let me know they were doing an investigation. To be perfectly honest, the individuals who contacted me were polite and respectful. When I asked them if they were suing me, they let me know that if I cooperate, that Apple has a history of being a generous company.

I answered all the questions they asked regarding how I got the torrent, how long I had seeded it for etc. I was honest and as helpful as I possibly could be. I suppose sometimes, honesty has a way of kicking you in the arse.

I pride myself in being a decent person, but when you're handed official documents that state you are being sued, it makes you feel like the absolute worst criminal there is.
