    Man, did you even read the originally posted article? Did you understand it? Do you even know what sort of sideloading everyone is talking about here? Because it’s sure as hell is not app development deployment. Google isn’t going to ban that! And users aren’t going to fire up Xcode, unpack an app IPA binary, modify the bundle configuration, and sign it using their ID so it’ll run on their phone for just seven days. That takes developer-level skill which you said wasn’t necessary. Or they could instead use one of the tools I listed, but you didn’t even think they were real.

    And none of the pages you linked to refer to “sideloading” except to say people can do it in the EU. Again, proving my point.

    Plus I’ve already covered your whole argument here in my last comment. Did you read this link? If you did, you would have realized your argument was irrelevant and pointless.

    Also, you should probably learn what Ad Homenim is…

    It appears you don’t understand what an ad homenim is, because I laid it out for you. When you say someone is making something up or something isn’t real, rather than actually addressing the merits of their arguments, that’s text book ad hominem.

    Jailbreaking is not within Apples rules (the hint is in the name)

    I never said it was. In fact, my first comment stated “…there are computer programs…,” and I’ve mentioned “tools” generally. Why would those phrases not include jail breaking programs and tools?

    And of course it’s not allowed by Apple. That was my point. If you live outside the EU and you want to sideload apps generally as a user, you have to use a tool like those I listed, which obviously includes the option of jail breaking.

    So you’re just reinforcing my point for me, like you’ve done multiple times already.

    Yet again, you ignored nearly all of my key points, you added more misinformation and vagueness, you don’t appear to understand what it is we’re actually talking about, and you don’t understand the skill level or tools required for what you’re suggesting. So like I’ve mentioned, this could be a great learning experience for you with a bit of self-respect, but instead you prefer to keep highlighting your ignorance and misunderstanding. You might be fine with that despite the obvious downsides, in which case more power to you.
