    The solution is to have a court of law convict him. Where the hell did you get those things you wrote? I never said them for sure.

      If he’s convicted, he can still make money off of his app. How about not allowing him to do that? Too anti-free speech?

        If he’s convicted, or if I judge orders it before he’s convicted, then the app goes down. It shouldn’t be up to Apple because of the monopoly / walled garden they created.

        If they just allowed 3rd party apps and/or sideloading apps, none of this would be a concern and I’d be 100% ok with Apple taking it off their store.

          You’re leaving it up to Apple if he’s convicted too. Either way it’s up to Apple. They aren’t legally required to get rid of an app of a convicted rapist and human trafficker. So what’s the difference?

            They aren’t legally required to get rid of an app of a convicted rapist and human trafficker.

            I’m arguing that they should be legally required to take it down in that case if ordered by a judge, and also, that they should be legally required to let users install whatever app they want on their device, either side loading, 3rd party stores, or whatever.

            Currently these aren’t true, but one can dream

              if ordered by a judge

              So as long as the judge doesn’t say he can’t make money from his app, Apple should keep up the app making money for the convicted rapist and human trafficker. Got it.

                Judges aren’t perfect, and our justice system isn’t perfecr, but it’s the best we got… people do get away with murder sometimes, but that’s a whole different story that I don’t think belongs here

                Got it.

                We’re adults (I hope), let’s behave like such and not put words in each other’s mouth. I didn’t say any of those words and you know it.

                  You very definitely did say that. I quoted you. You very clearly said that Apple should only take down a convicted rapist and human trafficker’s app if a judge orders it.
