If AAPL didn't block third-party app stores on their devices, there would be a whole 'safe for kids' app store. Not clear whether censorship (even well-meaning) produces healthier kids, but it won't be long before it produces an unhealthy software ecosystem. There are too many different users & use-cases for apps to be accessed usefully through a single storefront. Even with recommendation engine magic, I'm not seeing what I should be seeing. The worst outcome of bad app-store management is the decline of paid apps. This is terrible for developers but isn't even good for apple (who gets a cut of the pie). Seems clear they have no idea what they're doing vs, for example, steam -- valve has done a great job of cultivating non-free software. Also worth noting -- the penis is the reason we don't have a lego MMO. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-06-01-lego-mmo-development-dogged-by-dong-detection-software http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-06-01-lego-mmo-develo.... Either UGC is really tricky or we should stop caring.
