Except we have plenty of evidence of Scams, and plenty of evidence of Apple blocking the perfectly valid apps. And more that App Store isn't only about protecting people but also act as competitive advantage. All of the above were exposed in the current EPIC vs Apple Trial ( Although those evidence are not of particular used in the EPIC trial itself )

You might think all of that are ok in US, these practices dont sit well in Euro Centric Minds.

Not really - we have a few press pieces. Nothing like the millions of scams that are stopped.

Not really. We have a few prominent examples which are generally resolved by the developer adhering to the guidelines.

The App Store is a competitive advantage because consumers want a safe, trustworthy, and curated place to buy software.
