BlueJeans also runs a webserver when installed on macOS

My statement was very clear “developers are not forced to be part of the developer program.” Meaning that unlike ios, there are ways to distribute your app without signing it. “Notarization required by default” != “there is no method to distribute unsigned apps”.

Catalina still runs apps which haven’t been notarized or even signed, including those built after 1 June 2019. But you may find them more complex to run, and they don’t of course benefit from any of new security protection unless they’re signed and hardened.

You left out the portion of the article that says only apps you built yourself don't need to be signed/notarized.

Apps distributed over the Internet, like, you know, the ones we're talking about, must be notarized according to your own source.

Is difficult to understand? In Catalina just like in the current OS, there is a built in method for the end user to bypass code signing for any app. The user can choose to run unsigned third party code.

The article states that code you create doesn’t have to be signed and you don’t have to go through the “complex” process to run it.

Third party code forces you to go through the “complex” task of ctrl clucking.
