I created a placeholder iOS app for the App Store to warn users about scam “Sparrow” apps, of which there have been over a dozen. The app was never published, but Apple flagged it (a year later) for “dishonest activity” and will terminate my Apple Developer account on June 30 unless the decision is reversed.

The situation needs to be brought to the attention of Apple’s App Review board. Unfortunately X is probably the best way to achieve this, otherwise my appeal may never be reviewed by a human.

You need Saylor Balaji and Pomp to retweet to get engagement. Granted it's a retarded idea but it gets the alg working

Fuck Apple. How a single fucked up company decides what software can I run on my own phone? HOW? Who the fuck agrees to this?

Apples lack of attention to vetting mobile apps almost cost me my entire stack early in my Bitcoin journey before I knew better.

They're doing that KYC thing for all users soon anyway so it's time to move on. Linux now the only viable option for anyone who isn't a cuck loser.

Not safely on MacOS

Yeah, when installing new versions, mac gives a warning that I'm running something downloaded from the dirty internet and not their clean app store, however it always installs after clicking through. If this were to pass, it'd be different? OFC I'd want updates, nevertheless. Craig's signature on the manifest is more valuable than Apple's.

Update: the App Review Board has confirmed that my Apple Developer account will not be terminated. Sparrow on macOS is safe. Thank you to everyone who shared and reached out in the past 24 hours - I'm grateful. Credit to Apple for reviewing the appeal and reaching the right outcome - it could have gone another way. The deeper problem hasn't gone away: apps impersonating Sparrow Wallet are still reaching users and putting their funds at risk. I'll keep working on this, hopefully with Apple's support. Thanks all.

When you install OSX it's going to make you KYC.

I was going to by an m5 to replace my m1, but holding off to see exact how this KYC thing rolls out
