If you read Tim's tweet, it says in the policy "Ability to ENABLE Apple services [like] Sign in with Apple". This makes sense as Epic no longer has the ability to enable SIWA on new apps.
Says nothing about termination of SIWA on current apps as SIWA will continue to work on existing Apps.
I think Tim wasn't being too honest here.
- mannerheim 6y agoWhat does the following mean? > Apple is entirely within its rights to terminate Epic Games, Inc.'s developer account and all related functionality, but Sign In with Apple will continue to function for Apple customers for the next two weeks.
- komocode 6y ago"Within rights to terminate [...] all related functionality" is completely different than "Apple HAS TERMINATED [...] all related functionality". Upon terminating "all related functionality", SIWA will still work for two weeks, but no where in the letter said they have "terminated all related functionality". Apple chose to keep it alive. Tim Sweeny took this and misled the public saying "oh yeah, Apple is terminating it for sure" which is not the case.
- mannerheim 6y agoSIWA will still work for two weeks - that doesn't imply Apple might have terminated SIWA two weeks after that?
- komocode 6y agoSIWA will still work for two weeks should Apple decide to "terminate all related functionality". Apple did not decide to "terminate all related functionality".
