The problem is the world is now networked extensively and much more of our &#x27;life&#x27; is online.  Creating malware and the financial benefits of doing that are much more understood.  State actors have invested billions (if not 100 of billions by now) in cyber attacks.   I think it makes perfect sense for Apple to police anyone trying to provide unsigned binaries.  They protect the security of their i devices in a way that no other ecosystem owner does.
