What kind of reassurance do developers get that this policy will not change yet again in the future?
- JulianMorrison 16y agoYou want predictability and a company that won't react to destroy your business model because it's a little inconvenient? Develop for Android. Other than that, the only thing you can do is make yourself so very useful to Apple that they'll grant you an exemption if they decide to turn on a dime again.

It's a dangerous market, and has been from day one, because you do business at Apple's pleasure. When you build on a platform that is wholly and completely controlled like the iPhone/iPad platform is, the danger that the gatekeeper may change the rules or kick you out is an integral part of doing business on that platform.
