Evan Blass, one of the tech industry’s most trusted leakers, says he is stepping away from the leaking game after more than a decade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\nIn a clear post on x<\/a>Blass said this would “probably” be his last post on the platform, calling the phone leaks and wallpaper sharing an “unproductive distraction” at this point in his life. He also pointed to financial stress and chronic health conditions, saying they need to be prioritized and focused on stability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Speaking personally, I have been writing a lot about their leaks ever since I started as a tech journalist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
