Status: Non-monetary(?) settlement

In addition to the Doe case below, Apple brought a separate lawsuit in California against the 19-year-old operator of the Boston-based website "Think Secret" (www.thinksecret.com) and various anonymous entities for allegedly publishing trade secrets on that website. In December 2007, the parties announced a settlement in which the blog would stop publishing.
