Episode 436: It’s Safe To Join The Club

Manton and Daniel react to the anti-Apple Coalition for App Fairness, and its questionable citation of a quotation from Daniel’s Twitter account. They talk about the potential merit of this coalition in increasing pressure on Apple to make changes to the App Store, and the likelihood it will serve as a haven for smaller developers who are impacted by Apple’s policies.
