    Well, that's what anonymous hosting is for ;) Live and learn.

    Yes, but with anonymous hosting her friends wouldn't know that her dad has new iPhone :)

    True :)

    Well, her meatspace friends know that her father works for Apple, so maybe that's a given?

    And she could have created an "Apple insider" persona, and been satisfied impressing online friends.

    Yes, but only if just her friends know it's her behind that persona and they wouldn't tell to anybody else. And we all know that this will never happen, don't we? ;)
    It's hard to brag and stay anonymous at the same time.

    Stupid reason to lose your job. When you have a NDA, especially with your employer... what did you think was going to happen?

    I meant online friends that she doesn't know in meatspace.
