Rules for society and commutative living is understandable, as the rights of a collective should be as equal or bigger than the rights of a individual.
This line of thinking doesnt apply in the relationship between Apple, its developers and its consumers.
Its a direct relationship and we are trying to understand here what rights Apple have vs. the rigths their developers and consumers have.
> Following your analogy if you've bought a flat, nobody is obliged to deliver food to you, especially when some food vendors do not comply with delivery's rules.
What you are lacking here is that theres a conflict of interest going on.
The better scenario would be "Apple Homes Inc" also owning a fast-food chain, having the power to define, the food delivery you have access to.
The key thing here, is that they do it before you are even aware you are lacking options. So you wont feel as freedom of choice is being taken from you, because when you look at the "food store", you have options. And having options make you feel that you have choices and freedom, while you actually dont.
Some people like you, could be fine with it. But my main point is that its breaking foundamentals laws our societies are built on. Freedom, property, etc..
There is no specific law yet, because its unregulated. But im pretty sure that once law experts decide to really tackle this issue, some of those things will get much clearer.
A company like Apple or Google have too much power with this, and you can imagine the mess if somehow the powerful of the world get their hands on this powerful pipelines that can control the lifes of so many..
Without good and effective laws to really regulate them, we can be in a mess real quick.
(And im not even debating the rights of people who create apps and are dumped with clients wanting their products but not being able to reach them, because Apple forbid them with bogus reasons)
