A number of developers sending their iPhone Apps for approval from Apple have begun to receive disturbing e-mails, not only telling them their App is being rejected, but prohibiting them from telling the world that Apple turned it down, or why.
In what appears to be Apple’s answer to cases such as the Pull My Finger app, it’s now including a line reading “THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MESSAGE IS UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE” at the end of its rejections.
Of course, since developers have already signed a non-dislosure agreement as part of their entry into Apple’s Developer Programme, the company’s communication with them is already deemed confidential. It seems, however, that Apple wants to make it painfully clear, and limit the number of tales surrounding rejected apps.
What do you think? Do iPhone users have a right to know which apps are being kept from their phones? Will unlimited app development make you choose an Android phone over the iPhone? Give us a shout in the comments section below.
