Well, I see your point about "their platform", although I can find it pretty crap policy if I like :-)
I think the EFF article is particularly interesting because I think in the end this will be one of those about-face situations for them, I think their policies and procedures may not actually match up with what they really want (or perhaps a better guess is that the might be blocking things they didn't really intend to block -- or maybe they just don't like the EFF!).
So the EFF rejection stands out for me. It's like blocking the NY Times app because there's a political cartoon shown in it -- which would actually match up with a lot of other rejected apps.
Anyway, it's sand in Apple's face, publicly. And many developers stay away from the platform because of these issues. It's good all-around that this is in the news, imho, it gives them more incentive to stop the lameness.
Hey look, we turned this into a discussion! Wee!
