Steve Jobs's Departure as CEO Leaked Four Weeks Ago on OfficeLeaks.com

ST. PAUL, Minn., Aug. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the many rumors on OfficeLeaks.com was proven correct Wednesday evening. On August 2nd, an anonymous user posted a rumor that Apple's board held a vote to elect Steve Jobs's replacement. While the official announcement that Jobs would be stepping down sent shock waves through the tech community, it also validates anonymity and its place in today's digital world.

"I'm shocked," said Ryan Masanz, founder and CEO of OfficeLeaks.com. "We built this start-up to give everyone an anonymous voice within their company. Our users normally discuss more subjective issues, but this elevates everything."

The subjective and open nature of an anonymous forum means that there are no absolute facts. Office Leaks is simply a conduit for people to share information and make their own decisions. However, events like the Apple rumor will make posted content required reading for business owners everywhere.

Masanz is excited about the potential for Office Leaks to change the entire workplace dynamic. "Every day we're seeing more people speak out, and businesses are listening, whether they admit it publically or not."
