It is nice of you to tell Apple engineers about it that way but they will probably change it any way.

When Apple sees an opportunity to market their own stuff they will push competition out of business (even if there is no business at all).

"Security issues" is just a convenient excuse for them to shut down promising projects I'm afraid.

Yes just like that time they killed third party apps that let you limit your kids use of certain apps.

There was absolutely no security issue in an app that installed a VPN on your kids phone that recorded everything your kids did and send it back to a random company.

In the same vein, there was no security issue when Google and Facebook encouraged end users to install a profile that was suppose to be used internally so they could intercept all of your traffic....

Classic whataboutism - congratulations. This was not supposed to insult you so sorry if you work there O.o

This isn’t “whatsboutism”. The entire thesis of the parent post was that Apple did things to push third parties out of business under the guise of security when it really wasn’t about security.
