Dominance of Apple and Google’s app stores impacting competition and consumers
I hear praise of current standards which just makes me laugh. The standards are pathetic. Just look at any other industry. There are always detailed rules and you will be told when you break them with great accuracy. The inquisition had higher standards than these.<p>I honest to god can't develop software or run any business if I cant rule out faceless executive punishment without clarification. I cant even take web development all that seriously with googles dictatorship.<p>I believe this to the the right analogy:<p>Imagine building a brick and mortar store before asking for permission to open it. You get the permission but move some shelves around and buy a new carpet. You get a letter from Acme Corporation: We don't like something! Your business is hereby terminated. You naively reply and ask why? Is it the shelves? Then they visit you, wack you over the head with an AK47 and burn the place to the ground.<p>Outside there are people cheering the purification.
