[OT] A tale of App Store rejection

[Robert Sneidar]

While I agree that having to firewall off our personal devices is very inconvenient, lets remember who the true villains are here. Identity thieves, indiscriminate spammers, social engineers, etc. yes children, the world is a bad, bad place. I know some think it would be better if we all just tore down our defenses and laid down our arms. Trouble is we won't all. So we build towers and we defend ourselves. I sleep better at night knowing I can buy an app for the one device I have that every villain in the world would love to get control of, knowing that no villain has. Just my humble opinion that's all.
