Begging? Apple filed a couple of light objections -- basically a "don't regulate us, bro" -- and then moved on. Their resistance was laughably superficial Look, Apple is a predatory, extraordinarily greedy company, but these

How about you tell us where the market is good for devs? It is heinous in Canada and all of Europe that I'm aware of. Are you in China? India?

"Not in where I live though" I mean, not anywhere, and the data absolutely annihilates their ridiculous claims. In subsequent posts they've retreated back to "yeah, but someone somewhere has it worse", invalidating

That doesn't follow. I could be incredibly sentimental about something and still very happily part with it for millions of dollars. You are inventing a dichotomy that doesn't exist. Further, saying that men shouldn't have emo
