While I truly believe the dude and his app are bad, Apple shouldn’t be able to both arbitrarily remove whatever apps they want from the store, but disallow loading apps from places other than the store.

I’m aware of it. But this is not the same as letting Nazis hang out in your bar turning it into a Nazi bad, you don’t have to even interact, see, or be aware of the shitty things that others do with their own devices.
Apple is a private company that doesn’t want to promote this rapist. It’s their right.
Owning black people was also the right of plantation owners. And Nazis said they had a lot of rights as well…
If you think that something being a legal right means it morally should be, you’re on the wrong side of history.
You’re comparing Apple to Nazis because they don’t want to be in business with a rapist scumbag?
No, I’m saying just because we currently don’t regulate large corporations enough doesn’t mean they should have the right to fuck over anybody they want to
As a privately owned company, they reserve the right to not support rapists.Stop advocating for a rapist.
I don’t support rapists. That dude and people that want his app suck.
But everybody deserves to be able to run whatever software there want on their devices. And no company should be able to tell you what to do with things that you own.
