No, surely I don't / didn't. That's not the point at all. Security issues will ALWAYS exist, no matter how many bots at Apple check over the submissions.
But why couldn't Apple open source their automated scanning software so I could run it locally? Why couldn't they publish reports on the state of application ecosystem? Why not release lists of sponsored developers (with signatures)?
A paranoid organization can still not give users root, or install access. And secure OS could in theory not install things without checking them locally.
Problem solved?
- scarface74 7y agoTheir “automated scanning software” basically just checks for calls to private methods. You don’t call private methods by accident.

- scarface74 7y agoNo the review process is much more than an “automated scanning process”. What was your point?
