I was intrigued by this point:
We replied saying that there's a lot of scam apps on the App Store, and that there isn't an easy report scam button. We should have clarified that the relevant button only shows after installing an app, as well as being located at the bottom of the page - a text link saying "report a problem".
And Apples reply?
Gary … replied with what sounded like, and hallucinated like, a Gen AI answer: "it's on every single product page for every single app that's available on the App Store, very prominently".
No it’s not. The button does indeed only appear on installed apps, which is a problem if you’re already aware of issues with the app.
And it’s not prominent - it’s placed right at the bottom and in the small text like the privacy of policy link above it. You could easily miss it as you could just perceive it be part of the privacy/terms links - and who has time to read those??

The whole post in general is a good non-polemic piece on why we should not be using ICT services from commercial American organizations (the we includes sane Americans).
We are dealing with people who are not capable of honesty.

Laws exist only for ordinary people, they are not written for the chosen ones.

Real power is not capable of honesty, it just takes and does whatever it wants.

Apple is the same company that “complied” with the alternative app stores by “allowing” altstore to exist, fully controlled by something called “notarized” apps.
They are are a POS anti-consumer company which deserves the worst. Oh yeah, and let’s not forget the quality of their own os and apps. Pure trash.

There is no company a tenth of their size that is not anti competitive.
