Thats true-you don't have to respect or understand their point of view. If you don't respect or want to understand their reasons for the decisions they're making, perhaps you shouldn't be developing apps for the platform. And if you're not developing apps for the platform then you have no grounds on which to bitch and moan.
- bad_user 17y ago> And if you're not developing apps for the platform then you have no grounds on which to bitch and moan. Except in the case when Apple has a monopoly that holds back other mobile platforms for which you would like to develop for. This is not the case, not yet, but some can see it coming, although for obvious reasons I don't think it will ever be a monopoly.
- fizx 17y agoI have no grounds to voice my opinions and advocate for the world I wish to live in. Thanks for setting me straight a2tech!
- confuzatron 17y agoLove it or leave it, dude.
- treyp 17y agoYeah, isn't this a straw man? Nobody has claimed Apple owes them anything. They're just voicing their opinions to make the community a better place.

If you don't respect or want to understand their reasons for the decisions they're making, perhaps you shouldn't be developing apps for the platform. And if you're not developing apps for the platform then you have no grounds on which to bitch and moan. Great example of yes-yes persuasion technique. You made two statements few people can disagree with. Then you threw in a third one that is controversial YET appears to be just as logical as the previous two: And if you're not developing apps for the platform then you have no grounds on which to bitch and moan. How come?
- prodigal_erik 17y agoThe same could have been said about sharecroppers, but it would have been wrong. Some uses of power are unethical and threaten our ability to coexist, even if that power was gained legitimately. (This is my one problem with libertarianism.)
