Any app store would have to comply with government regulation in the markets they serve.

  A) just calling it government regulation doesn’t mean it isn’t my censorship. B) lots of content online that doesn’t my comply with government censorship. The app store model simply presents an easy choke point.

    Any local alternative app store is a far easier target for government censorship. Look at Chinese and Russian Android app stores. They comply immediately, often without even publicizing that. Apple at least takes longer to force to comply.

      I’ll repeat my comment: > The app store model simply presents an easy choke point.
