Interesting, I would not have expected calling Apple out for their malicious compliance practices would be controversial.

Sometimes Apple's malicious compliance is in service of (or less generously: aligned with) users' interests. I didn't know about the added fees that parent mentioned, so I appreciate them clarifying in this case.

Just wanted to say, with all seriousness, this is one of the most insightful comments I've read in a very long time.

I'm glad you liked my semi-offhand comment! I will now make "HN influencer" part of my identity :P.
