If they can charge a flat fee, they can censor arbitrarily, like Tumblr, or Fortnite.
There should not be any organization that gets to overrule your own wishes about what software you wish to install on your phone.
That’s turnkey tyranny because all it takes then is a law (or EO) that compels Apple to censor secure encrypted messaging apps.
They already strongarmed them into backdooring iMessage so that it’s not e2ee and Apple and the FBI can easily read all iMessages due to key escrow in (the non-e2ee) iCloud Backup.
- noitpmeder 3y agoI agree in principle but also think apple should be able to remain in control of their own store. However, they should be forced to let others provide alternative stores.
