Great story -- inspiring. I've read it several times over the years. But can you imagine what would happen to these guys today (and everyone who had helped them) if the Worldwide Loyalty Team were called in?

Probably nothing. The 'Worldwide Loyalty Team' was at best a hyper exaggerated version of reality, at worst a complete fiction used for page views by Gizmodo. Ask anyone who works at Apple...although perhaps they'll just deny it because they're worried about the Worldwide Loyalty Team ;)

Indeed, also, to play devil's advocate:
What if the renegades had been misguided, incompetent programmers who continued to come in to (inadvertently) insert bugs into an ongoing project? One begins to see the point of enforcing physical security policies.

If the rest of your company cooperates with inserting bugs and shit software the way the rest of apple cooperated with these people, physical security is the least of your problems.
