There's no way in hell those are all exploitable bugs. I'll bet my hat that those are "insecure practices".

New apps submissions review time did increase.

I was fully expecting that was about Trump administration, and was a bit disappointed that my prediction turned out to be wrong. I do not support this; I expected the first federal…

Blocking communications is basically sweeping the issue under the rug in the hopes that it dissolves on its own. This is closer to avoiding of "taking action"

I think their use of terms like AI and "agent" will make people think "Oh! it's what I use for code generation!"

What it does better than Rust? C++? Swift? And other language? Terms like "sane" and "joy" indicate highly subjective points, which does not help. Yes, I do not see value in knowin…

Yes, I was coming from Gruber's article, thank you for correcting me!

Or, write to your European MP.

AltStore works across the world, only in the EU it an Apple-approved storefront. Is it the total number? Also, is the number of store installs?

I'm curios what kind of shit specifically DMCA protects you from?

You should remember that according to a court testimony the whole European area (which goes beyond EU) gives Apple 7% of their revenue, whereas breaking DMCA may incur penalties of…
