I got an interview with a person in @ OnLeaks and a Tech-related information blog siteNOWHEREELSEIt is Steve Hemmerstoffer who is the editor. In his blog and tweet, information on the iPhone and Android machines before the announcement leaked, and the contents are accurate and collecting many followers.


Business Insider inquires about Mr. Hemmerstoffer about how it is getting information and about the new iPhone version of 2016 that Mr. Hemmerstoffer considers based on the collected information.

First asked about his occupation, Hemmerstoffer explained himself as an editor of Nowhereelse.fr. It seems that I have been involved in the operation of this site for over 10 years. In this blog site, from a few years ago, we have posted our own leak articles based on information gathered from other sites, gradually calling for reputation. Then, those who directly provide information under Mr. Hemmerstoffer have come out and now it is getting to secure their own information sources.

It is Nowhereelse.fr whose popularity has gradually increased and the number of accesses also continued to expand, but it seems there was a limit to the transmission of information because it was a site written in French as can be seen from the domain name. Therefore, Hemmerstoffer added a new Twitter account "@ OnLeaks"Was established in early 2015 so that leak information could be sent in English.

Confirmation of truth is becoming very important because it is leak information that should not flow out. Hemmerstoffer, asked about how to see fake information and real information, "There are several ways to do that, but there is nothing better than" experience "and" common sense "". Mr. Hemmerstoffer said that he uses 2 to 3 hours every day to gather information, he found that much of the information from Weibo in China. Hemmerstoffer says that it is now possible to tell whether it is genuine or fake by only looking at a glance, but it is said that Google's image search is used to scrutinize information often.


When finding a new image, Hemmerstoffer said that he tried to search the image on Google for images. In that case, similar images may be found, and in reality it is often found that it was a fake that just processed the original image in Photoshop. In addition, it is possible to find the primary source of the image by searching the image, and often the accuracy of the information further increases.

Three ways for Hemmerstoffer to think out, to see through the fake are as follows.

1: Based on "common sense", think about the possibility that such leak information is genuine

2: Use Google's image search to see if there are similar images or not processed images.

3: Then, arrive at the primary source of the image and determine the accuracy of the information by confirming the degree of reliability

In addition, Mr. Hemmerstoffer says that information from people in the actual supplier may be sent, but it is driving the information sideways by motivating things like moral heart There seems to be many people. Also, apart from such reasons, in order to solve manufacturing problems, there are cases where engineers upload drawings and ask questions with pure thought. In either case, it seems that it is not easy to obtain continuous information from these routes, as the person in charge will be changed or it will be driven out of the company if it turns out to be leaked.

Hemmerstoffer refused to answer "I do not want to answer ... because it is a sensitive issue" against the question of Business Insider's "Do you pay money to information providers?"

Finally, Hemmerstoffer asked about the new iPhone that is expected to appear in September 2016 "Although it is a spreading rumor, to be mindful, the next iPhone is very close to the iPhone 6s Changes include improving the performance of the camera sensor, changing the white line on the back, and discontinuing the headphone jack. "

Many people have already heard of this information, but it seems that it can be thought that Hermmerstoffer, who runs OnLeaks, said that the reliability was further improved. In addition, the iPhone, which will become a bigger version upgrade ahead, said that it will be announced in 2017, which will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the appearance of the iPhone.


Hemmerstoffer 's YouTube channel also released a CG image of the body shape that is supposed to be adopted on iPhone 7.
