Oh, but I was assured by Cupertino sycophants that you "just" need to CTRL-click open an unnotarized app and there is no protection racket for distributing apps, no big deal. The frog continues boiling.

All the technical arguments are entirely valid. But they are irrelevant to the end user, who has been using this so-called "bad software" perfectly fine for the past 40 years. What sort of reaction do you expect when you come in a
