YouTuber Jon Prosser has finally filed a formal response to Apple\u2019s lawsuit made against him and another defendant over allegedly stealing iOS secrets. In his response, Prosser denied that he \u201cplanned or participated in any conspiracy or coordinated scheme\u201d for the \u201cpurpose of injuring Apple.\u201d However, Prosser admitted to recording a FaceTime call showing unreleased iOS software and sharing revenue from his YouTube videos about the leaks with the person who showed him the information. Prosser also argued that the other defendant \u201cis completely responsible\u201d for the alleged disclosure of trade secrets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Last July, Apple claimed in its lawsuit<\/a> that Prosser and Michael Ramacciotti had a \u201ccoordinated scheme to break into an Apple development iPhone, steal Apple\u2019s trade secrets, and profit from the theft.\u201d Ramacciotti, Apple alleged, showed Prosser information about iOS from a development iPhone belonging to an Apple employee, Ethan Lipnik, in a FaceTime call. Over the course of a few months in 2025, Prosser hosted three videos on his Front Page Tech YouTube channel detailing an unannounced iOS 19 with elements resembling the Liquid Glass interface that Apple would go on to demonstrate at WWDC as part of its renamed iOS 26 operating system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Apple didn\u2019t immediately reply to a request for comment. When asked about the case earlier this year<\/a>, Apple spokesperson Jacqueline Roy told The Verge<\/em> that \u201cWe don\u2019t comment on active litigation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Months after Apple filed the lawsuit, a clerk entered a default<\/a> against Prosser after he hadn\u2019t formally responded to the complaint, meaning that the case could go on without him. But Prosser said in an April filing that he would finally be retaining counsel. In June, Prosser agreed to sit for a deposition<\/a>, and soon after, Prosser and Apple asked the judge in the case to set aside the entry of default. He did<\/a>, and gave Prosser 10 days to respond to Apple\u2019s complaint.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Below is Prosser\u2019s full response, if you\u2019d like to read it for yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
