Ask HN: Organize re: Apple TOS
Instead of writing long-winded blog posts on why Apple's screwing up, why not organize? Apple has a demonstrable track record of changing when consumers make demands on the platform, and when its name brand gets tarnished amongst its consumers.
If Greenpeace can do it: http://www.greenpeace.org/apple/
Certainly App developers can.
Heck, it could be said that the entire AppStore was created because of developer demands in the first place-- remember that Jobs' first answer to 3rd party apps was: "You can write apps on the web"
Look, like it or not, Apple's not going away-- there's tens of millions of iphones out there and soon to be millions of iPads out there. It's a significant platform we can't ignore. We can either write blog posts about it, or we can get organized and do something about it.
