    There is a problem here: Apple has designed the App Store and wider ecosystem to protect its users even when they don't know they're being protected: "it just works". So it's important that people know what they will be giving away when they are offered what I'm sure was offered primarily as a cheaper option.

    Do the majority of users know how they are protected and hence value it? Probably not but I think they very much would if the issue was first explained to them but I don't suppose this exercise did that. It's a classic example of the cheap option seeming just as good as the more expensive option right up to the moment you look closely.

    I very much value the protection provided by the App Store and I hope it is not damaged by hose seeking to make a quick buck.

    Customers know it gives them protection if they didn’t then why is it preferred over Webapps?
    the market has chosen this.
    Suggesting the survey is wrong.

    I feel like this survey reeks of confirmation bias.
