It's OK, Sir Jony Ive still works at Apple!

Sir Jony Ive - he's a Knight, don't forget! – did disappear from Apple's executive bio (opens in new tab) page this morning, but don't worry, he still works there. He's back on the top line, and presumably whoever accidentally deleted him either feels really dumb or has since been fired. It also didn't happen everywhere, in the UK he was present the whole time.

If Ive had left Apple, this probably isn't the way it would have been announced. But he hasn't. He's still there, and will continue to design killer products!

  • When did his name disappear?
  • He was, briefly, not appearing on the page shown above this morning. (http://apple.com/pr/bios) Created quite a stir on another Apple blog. His bio page was, however, still present, just not shown on the page.
  • I believe the crummy sites in question were either AppleInsider or MacRumors. AppleInsider especially annoys with their clickbait.
  • MacRumors is just as bad.
  • I never frequent such pages often enough to have noticed this event ever happening. It's good there are people who stay on top of these things!

  • I always wonder how people find this stuff. I consider myself in the realm of a "fanboy" but then stuff like this comes out and I realize I am just an enthusiast. Some people have way too much time on their hands. (Though I can not confirm, nor deny, having posted to such discussions) Sent from the iMore App
  • How would someone even notice that he was "briefly" missing from the page? Who has time to visit the page that often? Sent from the iMore App
  • Apple fanboys.
  • Company bio pics are kinda douchey. His looks to be douchey more so than his coworkers. Who would believe anything out up by a PR machine? Posted via the Android iMore App!
  • He's a Knight of the Realm. No room for cheesy smiles, all business ;-)

  • Early April Fool day for google & samsung?!!
  • Could you please just report on real stories and not insignificant crap like this?! It's like the bloggers have a quota on story postings per day no matter how irrelevant.
  • Considering the amount of "ZOMG HAS JONY IVE LEFT APPLE?!?!" stories about when I woke up this morning, I'd consider this most definitely "real"
  • Yeah. Im glad you waited to post. Posted via the Android iMore App!
