Lawyer dismissal of case
The lawyer representing Nick Ciarelli of Think Secret said he will seek to dismiss the case on within two weeks. Attorney Terry Gross, a lawyer prominent in free-speech and Internet issues, said he decided to represent 19-year-old Ciarelli on a pro bono basis after the Harvard student said he didn't have the funds to defend himself against Apple. "Supreme Court law is pretty clear," said Gross in an interview. "Journalists can't be prohibited from publishing material if it's lawfully obtained. Apple is just trying to intimidate this college kid."

First Amendment??
This has nothing to do with free speech! Nick should be forced to reveal the names of those who violated the NDA.
Simple as that!
