does not matter that anyone can do this on their own, and that what should be limited at the source... nonono, the source generates way too much money & power.
Just kill and blame the little guy for doing what the big guys are doing.
- jws 15y agoThe app did not function as advertised. That is grounds for removal. (Their API access was cut off by foursquare.)
- 27182818284 15y ago"The app did not function as advertised." Intentionally vague such that Apple or whatever company implementing similar language can cut off access to something when PR goes bad.
- jbri 15y agoFoursquare cut off the app's API access. The app literally didn't work when it was removed.
- nextparadigms 15y agoThis is what I don't get. Are the new Apple policies just for show, if they can kill at will any app they want if it brings bad publicity? In the end the fundamental thinking behind the App Store is still "we won't allow what we don't like".
- BHSPitMonkey 15y agoAs jws replied above you, the app no longer works because Foursquare revoked their API access (as it was in violation of their own terms).
