I respect DHH a lot, but I think he's got it completely wrong here, drawing false similarities between other apps which are clearly very different in their nature and I also don't think his slightly aggressive approach to "fight" with so much bad language and accusations in the public before trying a more civil and less inflammatory approach in private. It comes across that he thinks using his online clout can help him to be treated differently and pressuring Apple to his will, rather than play by the same rules than everyone else.
I think both is possible, play by the rules to get your app approved AND at the same time challenge the existence of those rules in parallel via a legal and civil way. What he's doing instead though is playing the stroppy revolutionary kid who doesn't want to play by the rules and wants to put everything on fire and at the same time get their toy out whilst shit is burning. Not the best approach from my limited life experience.
