Regulation will never be ahead of corporations. Regulators always play catch-up. Seeing how, at the end of the day, all these company care about is profits, hitting them where it hurts will make a difference.

That being said, Linux is available, and it's perfectly usable by people who would be bothered by Apple's dev policies.

These companies would be happy to lose the customer and the vars that complain. Unless you can convince 100x more people than yourself to loudly and dramatically move to something not as user hostile, just voting with your dollars will not work, there isn't enough competition.

It's not about voting, it's about the tech YOU use. You want apple? Buy it, if not dont. I really dont care what others use.

"Unless you can convince 100x more people..."
