Author here, I fetched the data set for the US app store and from a cursory look it does look worse than the original data set from the UK store. I'll write a follow up blog post, so if you are interested follow me on Twitter or use my blog's feed to get notified when it drops.

Please DM me if there are questions you are curious about exploring with this data set

Suggestion: Keep an eye out for Google iOS updates. It will be interesting to see where they fall in comparison with FB and others.

I was chatting to someone on Twitter about just that and I had previously noticed the absence of Google in the data set so it's on my radar already. I'm curious to see what shakes out from their submission.
