@gruber @stevesi @urbanstrata Sure. Here’s my suggestion: drop IAP rules, monitor the store for malware, and get out of everyone else’s way — PolitiTweet.org

@gak_pdx Think about it this way: everyone is mad about Facebook collecting data and incentivizing bad engagement behavior bc of the ad model, but if they wanted to roll out tipping on Instagram and change it, all those creators would have to pay Apple 30 percent. Why? — PolitiTweet.org

@gak_pdx Pretty sure you just questioned that twice ;) — PolitiTweet.org

@cyrulnik @dominocollege Or allow other cross platform messaging apps to be set as the default, yes — PolitiTweet.org

@gak_pdx The gist is that big companies that exert enormous amounts of influence over society while reaping massive profits should face unyielding scrutiny, yes — PolitiTweet.org

@gak_pdx Both — PolitiTweet.org

@cyrulnik @dominocollege Yes — PolitiTweet.org

@gak_pdx The Reddit app on iOS is censored to meet Apple’s store rules! There are no game streaming apps. The creator economy is about to run directly into the IAP rules. It’s endless — PolitiTweet.org

@gruber @urbanstrata You’re the one who published it and keeps using it, so just following along — PolitiTweet.org

@ThoughtsMingled @gruber @urbanstrata I have no idea what this means because metaphors are stupid and what this whole debate is really about is Apple’s unchecked desire to squeeze its developer ecosystem at the expense of permissionless innovation — PolitiTweet.org

@gruber @urbanstrata I don’t want to live in a theme park, I want to live in a well managed city. It’s super weird you think people should live in theme parks, until recently decried as depressing wastelands of culture — PolitiTweet.org

@jimmylittle @gruber Then you would be running a security consultancy — PolitiTweet.org

nilay patel @reckless

@gruber I think you might be conflating a security model with a business model — PolitiTweet.org

@DiogoExMarques @jaredwillis You know, Apple was incredible at getting Mac developers to buy into cohesive and smart UI design and even API adoption before it had the app store as leverage. — PolitiTweet.org

Smartphones are not just a nice thing you can have — they are the primary (and often only) computer for vast numbers of people. They are a conduit of culture! Condemning all those people to living in a "theme park" is even worse than a "walled garden" imo https://t.co/onT9FAhlFt — PolitiTweet.org

@cryptiot @Adweek That gem is a key example of how we managed to grow by respecting readers at every level of their interest in technology. You start there, and you land at “what is a computer” — PolitiTweet.org
