Do you think that I can put "Cheaper on www.mysite.com" in my amazon description? Why would it be controversial to prohibit someone from advertising a competing service on your platform?
- inopinatus 6y agoYou’re mistaking the platform for the product. I bought an item through Amazon recently and it did come with a bunch of materials inviting me to visit the manufacturer’s website. I bought an app through the App Store and it is prohibited from inviting me to visit the vendor’s website. In contrast, I bought a MMORPG through the PlayStation store and the first thing it did was direct me to the maker's account sign-up.
- Traster 6y agoIt's only prohibited to invite you to visit the website whilst you're still on the Apple platform. If you bought a physical item via an in-app purchase that item could include advertising for the external site -the exact same as Amazon.
- inopinatus 6y agoI'm not on the Apple platform. The product is sold through the Apple platform. Do you think Apple own the apps that are installed on your phone? Do you think they own your phone? Your ongoing relationship with a software developer? Do you think you are the product here? The answer for me: no, no, no, and no, respectively.
