If you thought that the arrival of Tim Cook at the head of Apple will relax a little the very strict policies of the company, then I inform you from now that this will not happen. Apple today put the tickets for WWDC 2012 on sale, he sold them in two hours, but many of those who bought a ticket probably didn't find out that they are not allowed to publish information, pictures or video clips from the sessions that will take place there. Apple allows everyone to do live blogging and publish pictures from the WWDC 2012 opening event, but after that no one is allowed to publish anything at all.
May I photograph or video record keynotes or sessions? No. Content presented at WWDC is subject to your applicable Apple Developer Program agreement(s). Taking photographs, recording video and engaging in any form of live blogging during WWDC sessions is expressly prohibited.
Apple does not say that live blogging is prohibited during the keynote, but it prohibits this practice during the sessions with its employees. Apple says it will provide everyone with detailed information about everything that happens in these sessions, but developers must keep the information to themselves. The rules imposed by Apple seem to me to be a bit strange and I think that soon the company could ban even live blogging during important keynotes, even though it does not broadcast live these events that would be watched by tens of millions of people.
