There's nothing wrong with signing software if you want to limit the
damage of malware. Open-source will probably work as long as the
software is listed in the Apple Store though.

 
Yeah, but it would obviously be bad to be forced to publish thru the App
Store

Admittedly, but a lot of the people who buy Apple hardware do so because
they want to be safe from the kind of threats that exist in the Windows
world. They will stick to the software in the App Store to escape
potential problems. It's in their and the developer's best interests to
make the software available there.

Yeah, and thats good and all but it also lets them remove the option to
NOT go through the app store.

The more Apple does to alienate tech people, the better, in my view.
The more M$ pushes Copilot+, the more bloated Windows gets, the more
cheesy macOS gets, the more you need Linux, we win.  We already are.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
