- quickpost 17y agoNo Kidding! This sets a dangerous precedent.
- stcredzero 17y agoThat is, if you don't end up just eliminating yourself. We could also interpret your comment as meaning: "I've already hacked into my competitor's machines, so Apple can trace the IP addresses back to them."
- jfoutz 17y agoYes, you could interpret it that way... Do you really think apple examined the ownership of each IP? Oh, comcast ip XXX happens to be the mom of the lead sales guy of this app! ban the app! Seems unlikely to me, but I'm not privy to apple's internal investigation system. I'd wager you aren't either ;)
- stcredzero 17y agoIt wasn't a commentary on Apple's investigations. It was a commentary on the lack of foresight in your scheme. I see your point though. Tracing IP addresses through an ISP's DHCP is probably way too complicated and expensive for a little fly-by-night operation like Apple. They wouldn't have any pull with Comcast. (Hmmm, your "clever" rejoinder has a few problems of its own. Left as an exercise. Take some advice: Keep your day job. Planning heists doesn't seem to be your strong point.)
