You might want to re-read about that Apple-Microsoft incident.

Quicktime got stolen by an ex-Apple employee & in return Apple had Microsoft commit money & promise to have Office suite available on macOS/OS X



According to [0] it was a contractor working for both Apple and Microsoft. Not an ex-Apple employee but still an interesting read, if true.

Wouldn't we call that industrial espionage not a contract, not simple contracting?
