I've heard HN was big on this concept called "empathy". A dude's project died of a thousand paper cuts. The dude's observations about Apple made him notice an emergent pattern of Apple being all but openly hostile towards any independent efforts of assuring one's privacy in a way the person themselves sees fit, as opposed to privacy as Apple sees fit, and all but openly hostile toward small developers in general. Think for a moment how lucid would you yourself be after a couple years or more of those things grating on your nerves. Read the thing again through this lens.
