It doesn't take much imagination to come up with other scenarios. No idea if any of these are true. * apple actually did communicate to them, but it went to the developer's spam box. * apple actually did communicate to them, but sent it to an old email address that the developer never updated. * apple actually did communicate to them, but it was via a developer dashboard that the developer rarely checks. * apple didn't revoke it. something else is going on.

You make all good points except for the dashboard. I don't believe that posting a message on your own property can be construed as sending a communication (and for something like this situation, we're talking about sending when we say communicating). It would be like having to go to a lender's headquarters for financial statements and tax documents.

>* apple actually did communicate to them, but it went to the developer's spam box. Isn't "check your spam box" the same thing you're going to do if you're looking for an email that you're expecting? >* apple actually did communicate to them, but sent it to an old email address that the developer never updated. plausible, but seems unlikely that'd be the case, considering that this is a semi-important account that you won't use a throwaway account for. Also, isn't your itunes connect (app store) login based on your apple id, which is based on your email? >* apple actually did communicate to them, but it was via a developer dashboard that the developer rarely checks. His tweet said that his account was suspended, so he probably found that out while trying to log in, or got an email.

> apple actually did communicate to them, but it went to the developer's spam box. Why are so many people assuming that Apple would only email a developer about revoking their certificate, a drastic action that suddenly kills all of the developer's apps? Apple has the phone number of every member of their developer program. Anything less than an immediate phone call from Apple in this situation would be gross negligence. > apple didn't revoke it. something else is going on. It's revoked. Any Mac user can verify this with "codesign --verify" on any of the apps on the developer's website that are still available for download.
