It also doesn't take into account Twitter posts he deletes. Or makes outrageous claims like "Steve Jobs Heritage Edition." And we're still waiting for the real AirPower photo he claims to have after he was called out on the fake one.
He got duped into that
but multiple other leakers, equally reputable ones, also claim AirPower is coming.
people have a lot of undignified hate towards him without doing any research. Just one article says something bad and boom judgements drawn.
maybe his whole fiasco with 9to5mac insulted a lot of the hardcore Apple community, who knows. He was wrong for saying what he said publicly but 9to5mac was also wrong for trying to defame him or put him down in the first place. Who knows what the reason is. Best to always look at independent “reputable” leakers with solid track records and see what overlaps.
The overlap tends to be correct
For example, Apple Glass. Now more people are talking about that and have knowledge about it, whereas JP broke that story (and came under intense heat as a result)

He retweets or replies to Prosser. And then posts in Chinese, saying Prosser a joke and a "fisherman" basically fishing for an audience.
L0vetodream definitely does not trust Prosser. LOL.
interesting. I didn’t know that (I don’t know chinese), but my impression of people’s accounts of their private conversations between each other is that there is mutual respect and agreement
I also wonder why he would call him a joke but at the same time agree with him,
At least in English.
regardless, other leakers who have solid track records do express respect for JP. I think neither you nor I know him on a personal level, and people who are in that leaking community do know him more than either of us do. They tend to have positive things to say about him, from The few who come on podcasts or participate in AMAs to public tweets - they’re vocal at times. I do trust Weinbach, again not always right but he has a decent track record esp with display technology, and he and JP are friends.
point I’m making is, people can choose not believe a leak. But if someone was right about something, give credit where it’s due. Too many people hate and focus on the negatives in this world, where we should be enjoying leaks as they come. It’s part of the Rumor ride whether they are true or not.
