ICYMI: An employee at Apple for six years, a TikTok user is being threatened with the loss of her job due to videos that discuss the iPhone.
In her TikTok video related to this situation, Campbell said,"I can’t tell you exactly how I know this information, but I can tell you that for the last six years, I’ve been a certified hardware engineer for a certain company that likes to talk about fruit." She warned the person being blackmailed not to give in to the demand. Campbell said in her response video, before warning the user not to listen to the extortionists.
Over the weekend, Campbell posted another video titled"Dear Apple" in which she identified herself as an Apple employee for the first time, and said that she was waiting to hear from the company about whether she was going to be fired. In that video, she said,"I’ve never actually identified myself as an Apple employee until this video. Funny thing is, though, after reviewing the social media policies...
She is absolutely correct. An internal Apple document states,"We want you to be yourself, but you should also be respectful in posts, tweets, and other online communications."Besides working for Apple, Paris is also a stand-up comic. She has a sizable following on TikTok which numbers 439,900. While that alone might not protect her from receiving a pink slip with her name on it, Campbell points out that her videos do not contain any information that has not been already made public.
Her points are valid. Her videos do not contain any company secrets, and the security tips she is passing along are helpful to iPhone users. It could be argued that what she is doing is providing Apple customers with a service. Perhaps Apple could take another look at what it has here, and train Paris to reply to questions posed about the iPhone on TikTok.
With companies finding it harder and harder to keep employees, here is someone knowledgeable about the iPhone and is willing to answer questions from TikTok users. Apple should hire Campbell to do this full time. It's what the suits in corporate headquarters call a"Win-Win."Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
