I agree, but we also have to consider other portals or facilitators such 
as Google. I'd also suggest that people such as Apple do have a 
legitimate right to exclude developers and apps which have been proven 
to screw users' appliances.

What /is/ the AppStore in this context? It's obviously a repository at 
an address flashed into Apple devices, but does it also sign apps 
validating that they're legitimate?
