"I got really unhappy with it when random open source tools suddenly disappeared offline and became $2 pay-to-play software on the mac store." This has nothing to do with Apple. "For anyone who doesn't want to play on the app store they now have to now get 'certified' by apple that they are allowed to write software for the mac. If you don't play by those rules, you can expect your software to be widely ignored regardless of the quality or malware status." Sensationalist drama. The people who will be looking for software outside of the Mac App Store are the people who will know how to click to disable needing signing.
