So, in order to punish the developer of an app Apple takes an action that significantly hurts the users of that app.

- ixtli 10y agoI know this doesn't treat the totality of what you're saying but in the past (and I assume it to be the case here) if you paid for the app on the app store it'll be available for download even if it's delisted. This was the case with the game Edge when they got targeted by a trademark troll for their name.
- ParadoxOryx 10y agoI believe the app stays available in the Purchases section like you said if the developer "unpublishes" the app, but not if the account or app is "terminated" by Apple. In addition to Dash (which I'm not able to locate in my Purchases tab), I've noticed this to be the case with apps that violate Apple's rules, like those hidden proxies or emulators that have sprung up over the years and were later removed by Apple.
