> Android is why it is clearly wrong to intervene in Apple’s secure store.
Why is Android wrong? The sky hasn't fallen over on the Android side.
Android's security woes are caused by lack of updates from carriers (which frequently delay or block Android updates), OEMs (which frequently don't bother to port security updates because they want to sell the newest devices, shenanigans similar to those pulled by Apple until it changed its stance about 2 years ago or so).
I don't know many people side loading apps or installing alternate app stores. The big alternative app stores are Chinese, which are there for obvious, non security related issues, and Amazon's app store, which is used primarily on their devices.
So I don't really see the problem. I do see a solid Stockholm syndrome.
Especially with Apple, the ecosystems are so big that the choice given to users is weak. Do users chose between an open phone and a closed one, or between a phone that connects with their laptop and their earphones, or a phone that can Facetime™ their friends and family?
Same kind of problem with presidential elections in democratic republics. Closed systems limit choice.
