So what is the point of the web if people have to get permission to publish native apps to make money off their own content?

  I agree that Apple is screwing things up, but I don't think Ars is complaining out of self-interest.

    Wasn't Ars the site that was whining at it's readers about how adblocking screws them? It would fit in with their previous complaints.

      How does blocking ads that I'm not going to click screw anyone? Surely no one pays for their ads to just appear on a web page. If they do I think they're getting ripped off. Until I started hearing people talk about how scary targeted ads were I never even knew. I don't run ad block but I don't even notice the ads. I had to consciously look to see if they were targeted. I saw they were, said "oh, that's scary" and went back to my regular browsing. A result of growing up on public TV I guess.
