Apple Computer Inc. filed another lawsuit in the Superior Court of Santa Clara County on Tuesday against a Web site alleged to have posted proprietary information or trade secrets.
This follows a filing in December by Apple, of Cupertino, Calif., which asked the court to subpoena sites in order to reveal the identities of individuals who allegedly placed such information on message boards related to similar sites

The "Apple new product rumor mill" (also known as "revealing of trade secrets") has always been a part of the Apple culture but recently it's gotten dramatically out of hand. ThinkSecret is a little too good at knowing what's coming from Apple and it was only a matter of time until Apple went on a fishing expedition to solve this increase in leaks. John Gruber has a nice article about this.

I think the current fracas mostly relates to pre-release copies of TIger circulating on BitTorrent sites. I for one would rather wait for the 'real' release ;)

The lawsuits are specifically about the headless mac rumor and the iwork rumor, not Tiger related.
