Having developed for 5 years on iOS I've never found it a burden. Sure you might wait a few days for approval, but at least generally it keeps the App Store content dependable and trustworthy from a customer standpoint. Like people always say, you don't like the rules, don't play in the sandbox. While the EFF has a lot of good things to say, complaining that Apple should do things against its own rules is not constructive. Android is far more open which makes some people happier but makes their store far less trustworthy (and even less so if you get apps outside their Store). You as a developer always have a choice. I don't think this is a useful point of argument for the EFF.
