Pay up or get out: Apple's options for South Korea's App Store law
What difference does that make? An app is an app. An iPhone or an iPad is just another type of computer.killroy said:tylersdad said:
Why would I use their server? My customers are able to download apps from my website and install them.killroy said:tylersdad said:
No. As a developer, I feel I should not be limited to Apple's way of distributing apps to my users.rob53 said:
So you believe a developer has every right in the world to post their apps for free on the Apple App Store? Give me one legitimate reason why Apple should be required to host these apps for free. Apple doesn't charge for free apps but could start doing that if they wanted to. Apple could also start charging developers to even put their apps on the Apple App Store and if these stupid laws pass, I'm all for Apple doing that. There's no way anyone could force Apple to host things on their servers for free. It would be like me hosting your email server on my hardware, which I maintain, for free. Get a grip, I'd never do that and I doubt any company would do that. This shows how stupid these laws are.22july2013 said:Exciting times. I've been arguing for this for years and that's why so many people hate me on this forum.
Of course, if you want to have your own payment system, then be prepared for Apple to start charging you a hosting fee for every download and install of that app. That's only fair isn't it?
It's as simple as that. I won't use their infrastructure and they won't get any money from me (other than my developers subscription).
You well pay for use of their server. And you well be kicked off if your app has malware.
We are talking about iOS app store. Not the Mac app store.

Pay up or get out: Apple's options for South Korea's App Store law
Somehow I'm able to get my apps out to Windows users without the use of Microsoft's app store. Just like I've been doing since 1995.loopless said:Only people who have never developed an app for sale want this to happen. Apple takes care of everything for you, money just appears in your bank account. It's worth every penny.

Civil rights groups worldwide ask Apple to drop CSAM plans
Uh...so you're against the First Amendment? Freedom of expression? And to what end would you allow law enforcement to monitor content to make sure people are facing consequences for posting inappropriate online content?mike_galloway said:cjlacz said:Little late for that now. Apple already opened that can of worms (if it is actually a problem) just by announcing it. I'd still kind of like to see this implemented. I think Apple has addressed this as best it can, and governments can mandate that companies scan for this stuff with laws regardless of any prior implementation. Tech has kind of created this problem of sharing these CSAM photos easily. I'd like to see them as part of the solution too.Agreed - our ability to say, post or store online what we want without consequence has gone too far. This has been caused by the tech companies so it’s really up to them to fix it.
