    The difference with Android is you’re able to, it’s just not enabled by default. This is Apple outright blocking sideloading.

      Anyone who wants to sideload is tech savvy enough to know that and avoid buying an iPhone. I don’t know who this law is supposed to protect.

        Eh, I know plenty of developers glued to the apple ecosystem who could probably have a lot of fun with it if they were able to. They just don’t rate it as important enough to counteract the things they like about the ecosystem.
