MacBuildServer created at least one of the certs they use for signing inhouse/universal distribution apps on 2013-05-15T16:48:45Z, and it has not yet been revoked. If it does get revoked, they can just remove that part of their service, and continue to allow people to upload their certs, keys and provisioning profiles for building server side. (o.O)
Once MBS becomes more popular, Apple will have to react to prevent others from abusing this. This is the first real test I can recall of their enforcement policy. Honestly, I can't see any enterprises that rely on iOS internally risking TOS violations in a similar public manner even if Apple decides not to enforce TOS with MBS.
- idunno246 13y agoYep, it's just this one feature, the rest of the build service is safe, and potentially cool from a features standpoint. I assume the fear is it would be fairly trivial to add an app store on top of this.
- mikehotel 13y agoRight, that is the fear, and I think Apple may only act if the competing App Store is affecting their bottom line via lost revenue. But who would build something like this knowing Apple can shutdown their business at any time? Cydia is the only real competing appstore I am aware of, and they are relying on iOS bugs that Apple keeps patching.
