No I'm sure AWS don't want it either.
And it absolutely is 100% typical of Apple to do this kind of thing. They don't want third party companies to provide offerings which might cause them problems or degrade their brand/perception.
I'm not at all saying these terms were added to benefit AWS. More that they were a condition of Apple doing this first official cloud partnership.

- Blahah 6y agoIs there anything to stop someone renting the servers and running a build service on them, thus subdividing the use of the resource?
