Doing so publicly certainly does. I would terminate business with a client if they started airing out their issues about me on Twitter.

That said, I’m not Apple. At a certain size, you lose the right to reject bad actors.

You don't control access to half of the world's mobile devices do you? :)

Like I said, Apple gives you no other choice. They don't have proper channels for communication on things like software defects or policy. You have to kick up a public outcry to get any help.

Sweeney and Schiller were emailing. Apple will read a letter you send addressed to their legal team.
