I hope this amounts to something. Apple and others need to be held accountable, especially when there is blatant evidence.
But I honestly think nothing will come of it, since Apple is America's golden boy, investors love Apple because of it's growth and consumers love their products, bordering near fanaticsm of the brand.
Just look at HN and read the comments regarding Apple. Any thread which speaks something positive about Apple (even when it is fake news, like today's false claim about the App store refunds) gets upvoted to the sky, but dare say something negative about Apple and people will hunt you out of the woods.
Devs sure love their Macs.
P.S. Windows all the way
- ocdtrekkie 6y agoI have my doubts Apple (or Tim Cook) is going to end up being taken down for committing perjury. But these Congresspeople will be making recommendations and/or introducing bills on regulating these companies, and my guess is that their distaste for being lied to may tinge their attitudes as they legislate.

Based on what’s happened with Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg so far, which is nothing substantial for the company or him, I wouldn’t worry about Apple or Tim Cook. I do believe that Apple has arbitrary policies with too many twists and turns on the App Store and that it’s high time it cleans up that part sooner though.
