  • Apple's macOS Catalina is first to require app notarization by default

    Not unexpected, but that's a lot of whining over something small. If you don't want to have your app notarized then don't sign it.

    Do you know for a fact that unsigned apps do not need to be notarized? It seems like it but I haven't seen any confirmation of this.

    Also there is a lot of applications that are signed out there that will not work unless the developer decides to get it notarized and publish a new release.

    I hope there is some kind of defaults override for users who know what they are doing.

    I think it is pretty clear that software that is signed with a developer ID (which is most of the software out there really) has to be notarized as well. I think that is fairly reasonable as the developer are going through the trouble with the ID anway and it does add an extra layer of protection I guess.

    The real question in my opinion is if software without the signature with a developer ID can still run on macOS by bypassing gatekeeper (right click, open). If that is closed down we have a problem a and there will be a very low adoption rate.
