Yep, he sure got a call. Maybe just from his superior who was worried and perhaps said something.
Got a tip for us?

Is it so hard to believe for you guys that daddy just did not have a clue what his daughter was doing? Come on, this man lost control over his credit cards and was exiled to the rear seat by his braindead offspring. This man clearly is not in control over his life.
I hope, for both of their sakes, this is true. Every high-tech place I've worked is very secretive about cameras of any type, to the point of having laptop computers ordered without webcams.
Except for the product has already been officially unveiled. Quit being jealous!
For me, this was a better advert for the new iphone, than Apple’s usual adverts, which always come across as over-produced, with slick visuals, trendy people doing perfect cool things, stylish locations, etc. But ultimately sterile, anonymous, and just don’t connect.
This video was real, personal, organic... and connected far better. I also like the idea of having a real apple employee in an ad, but looking at their ‘real life’, and engaging in some non-work stuff... I think that would have the additional outcome of improving Apple’s perception as a company..!
If this was a marketing test: well done, i liked it, do more.
If this wasn’t authorised: then do more like this, and for goodness sake don’t sack the employee.

He violated a confidentiality contract with his employer on the largest product release in the company's history. I'd fire him too. If they didn't, what do you think will happen during the next product cycle if this guy just got a verbal warning? Leaks are already an issue for Apple, and it's hard to find the violators - when they can actually catch the actual person who should know better? Game over.
Because those people were media, and were only able to show/film the device in a very controlled environment under Apple's careful eye. You can clearly see in the redacted video that this guy even had an engineering meeting scheduled (an ECO meeting - engineering change order) for an unannounced product (Venus). That's what happens when things aren't controlled. This was very very bad.
My freaking God, a video from a young blogger showing an already announced product that is days from delivery. Ya, crucify the guy and snuff his offspring as well, sheese, what a joke Apple.
Perhaps the phone is a red herring, and actually it’s filming inside apple campus that is the problem?!
The camera she was using was not a small camera. People knew what she was doing, and they let this happen.
I think it was done to show how Apple Pay will work seamlessly with the FaceID functionality, and I for one, am even more excited to get my hands on this phone now.
Privileged or not, this girl made my Tuesday better.

I was told not by security not to use my camera when I last visited the Apple campus. I wouldn't be surprised if the cashier also got in trouble for not stopping it.
