How come keynote slides haven't been leaked?

Not sure if this would ever happen or not but anyone curious why slides from any upcoming keynote have never leaked or why the entire set of slides from a keynote have ever leaked?

I'm sure it's not just one person who has possession of the actual keynote presentation...

Just crossed my mind.

Apple runs a tight ship. I'd be willing to bet the only people who have access to the keynote are members of the executive team.
 
because only Apple top execs have the slides (and its not in their interest to leak it) compared to all the overseas factory workers who make iphones
 
Who makes them though? I don't envision Steve Jobs (when he did keynotes) or Schiller or any Apple executive sitting on a Mac making a presentation. Other people are bound to see it.
 
They are prepared as the presenter talks, the implant inside the presenter transmits the content on the fly to Keynote New Product Frenzy Pro, only available to top Apple Execs, and some abducted suppliers use it, the suppliers are drugged and not themselves when on stage.
BTW: this technology helped developed AirPlay.

I bet they did along with the other executives. Steve's a perfectionist and I doubt he would depend on someone else for his presentation.

Is Keynote New Product Frenzy Pro on the App Store, and if so, how much is it? :p
 
They're probably password encrypted, and I guess it would be too easy to find out who had access to them.
 
The slides must have been prepared by a trusted Personal Assistant and the file saved in a local storage, and when it leaks the presenter knows who leaks it.
 
Supposedly apple execs sitting in the crowd at the keynote for the original iPhone didn't know it existed until that moment. They're notoriously secretive. How hard is it to put a password on a file?

Senior executives at most corporations have Administrative Assistants that are privy to their most private personal details. These are trusted and very well trained professionals. Among other things -- from arranging their bosses' doctors appointments to navigating their children's events -- they are also capable of creating slides ... while keeping it all under wraps.

I can attest to this 100%. Our CEO stepped down and she knew for months. Didn't tell a soul.

Easy, every Apple employee that have seen the slides or have worked with them get one attached one of these. If any info about it leaks, they (i bet Steve Jobs from his house) activate them XD
 
Hmm, I've wondered the same thing also.

I know there were "leaked" pictures of the presentation desk that they were going to use at their events. The most recent I can think of is the iPad 1 (which ironically also had an iPhone 4 sitting besides it, but it was too dark for anyone to say it was a new iPhone).

So someone with access to at least the devices and the presentation desk was able to leak something just days before the actual presentation. I'm not sure if they'll be able to do that this time around. Would be awesome to though.

That's interesting. I just pulled up the picture and you actually can make out the iPhone 4 in the corner.

Yup, I remember Gizmodo showed that picture along with the iPhone 4 prototype. Funny thing is that, every one was so focused on the iPad, that I don't think anyone paid attention to that iPhone 4 sitting in the corner. People only saw it after Gizmodo leaked the iPhone 4.

There's also another image where the iPhone 4 is in plain view on top of the iPhone. :D
