The "bizarre" world is this world.

If you go through the trouble of applying for a job, submitting a resume, doing a phone interview and are rejected - they may kick you to the curb and NEVER tell you why. This is not bizarre world, this is this world.

If you apply to college and they turn you down, even though you have paid fees and spent time on your application, they almost certainly WILL NOT tell you why as they kick you to the curb.

If you are sending spam and the mailer rejects you, it almost certainly will not tell you exactly why - just give a link to general guidance.

Most if not all large / high volume application systems have evolved in this direction.

It's disappointing seeing a developer claim apple is out to "kill" indie developers.

It follows a pattern of absolutely over the top language around companies like apple.

Apple's approach has resulted in 2 million apps+ in the app store. I'm not sure given their crappy interface I could find or use even a fraction of them.

Apple is dealing with 2 million+ apps. Some of the developers are not reading the guidelines or actively subverting or trying to subvert apples customers.

If you work in this type of space, your time becomes precious and there can be extreme mismatches between what a developer etc thinks is owed to them and what they have paid for.

I'm pointing out that the developer is not following even basic guidelines. It seems possible that either this or another guideline is not being followed?

For some perspective on apple "killing" developers.

Apple is FLOODED with copycat crap apps - 10 different names etc etc. Seriously, the play store used to have lots more of these - maybe now cleaned up. But saying that apple needs to encourage this crap is silly. This is what was killing the play store.

The guy complaining here has his "privacy policy" as follows: https://github.com/glushchenko/fsnotes

When someone who doesn't know git or github tries to read his privacy policy they have no chance.

Why it this all apple's fault? I don't think it is unreasonable to ask for a privacy policy.

One fix, developers should be able to pay $500 to have someone give them some training on what sections of app review guidelines they are breaking. Do 30 minutes to prep, spend an hour talking with them, then 30 minutes to wrap up.

Someone has this service - seriously - consider paying for some guidance if you don't want to read through the lengthy Apple stuff yourself.

I liked google trips and finance, light weight to the point. Not sure what happened to either of them, maybe just less discoverable these days.
