I haven't seen any evidence that Apple is poaching Google's employees. It's quite possible that the employee in question approached Apple, not the other way around.
In this context it does. The rumored agreement was that Apple and Google couldn't recruit each other's employees but their employees could apply at the other company if they wished.

In this context "poaching" doesn't necessarily require Apple to have approached him.

i've also heard it worded that they would not even /hire/ from each other, not just recruit from each other.
Yeah, that's a less strict usage of "poaching" that you'll sometimes see.
