Gizmodo? The publication that got uninvited to all Apple events due to their coverage on the leaked iPhone 4? I'm certain there are new owners of Gizmodo since then, but the irony here is pretty interesting...

They literally committed a felony, bought what at that point was a stolen prototype, damaged Apple's property, and then tried to extort Apple in exchange for returning what was, again, Apple's own property.
