The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) released a statement regarding this. It says that Apple’s rules regarding leaks and statements from high-level executives “tend to stop, control or pressure employees” from using their rights given to them by the National Labor Relations Act.

The NLRB’s decision refers to an email sent by Apple CEO Tim Cook in November 2021. In the email, Cook stated that individuals who leak confidential information about Apple are not fit to work at the company. It does not matter whether it is about “product intellectual property. Or confidential meeting details.” He also mentioned that the company was making an effort to find out who was responsible for the leaks. The following is an excerpt from Cook’s email:
