WHY should one pay any amount to Apple, to develop software? Apple artificially props up obstacles to development, and then "sells" tools to overcome them!
And WHY should Apple even review and approve apps that run on hardware YOU own!! When you buy a fridge, does the manufacturer review and approve your groceries?
- Aaargh20318 7y ago> When you buy a fridge, does the manufacturer review and approve your groceries? No, the FDA does that. Apple needs to approve apps because there is no FDA equivalent for apps.
- writepub 7y agoNon sequitur! The FDA is a government entity with a mandate to protect citizens, bound by non-fluid law. Apple is a self-serving private company, not beholden to user's interests (but shareholders), with an extremely fluid, arbitrary set of "laws" (if you can even call them that).
