They won't provide any rationale the same way a justice court in a dictatorship doesn't need to refer to actual laws to justify their decision.
The appstore process is arbitrary by design, to keep power inside the company.
- saagarjha 2y agoI mean, even a court doesn't publish all the deliberation that goes into arriving at a decision. They prepare a final verdict and deliver it–while it would be interesting to see, we have reasons we don't post things like "juror 2 thinks what you did was barely legal".
- troupo 2y agoCourts at least try to justify these decisions with supporting documents, evidence, and links to precedent. Apple just rejects, or approves, or approves and rejects and often cannot say why.
- saagarjha 2y agoSure. But I don't think them showing their internal discussions would help solve the problem here, because their internal discussion is likely to be inconsistent and poorly documented.
- jdiez17 2y agoI downvoted you because you only emotionalized OP’s point without addressing the reply above.
- realusername 2y agoI answered the reply above, they will never provide any answer because it's opaque by design. It's not an oversight, it's how it's meant to be. Then it's not emotional, it's a rational analysis of what's going on, there's a lot of money at stake here for Apple.
