How is 'not publishing unlisted APIs that have been unpublished for years' Apple 'doing terrible things'.
These guys blatantly violated the TOS. There should be no surprise here. If anything what they did was basically a stunt.
> I have talked with startup founders time and time again they tell me their iOS apps are more barebones because Apple's policies or permissions prevent them from implementing the same features they can implement on Android
Apple implements things at the pace they want. That's one of the reasons things in iOS are generally well thought out and it's so hard for a rogue app to destroy battery life or violate your privacy.
Apple chose the trade offs they want to make, andnit seems to be working very well for them.
