How 'bout a little apple.......

Hmmmmm…..this guy got kicked out of iOS developer program for discovering a security flaw. On the one hand I fathom it, on the other, it makes Apple seem like it’s screaming “STOP POINTING OUT OUR FLAWS!”. A la the late Mr. Jobs.

I really agree with some of his points, but I also agree with some of the commenters (-ors?). He could have waited a few more days to bring it up……..But great points nonetheless……

Well, it’s good that Apple actually admitted a problem. I think this is an early crack in the post Steve Jobs Apple era. Admission of a problem would probably never have come in prior days, just a silent software fix.
