Comment on Security researcher Charlie Miller booted from Apple Developer Programparent

The downside is poorer security, which could blow up in their face spectacularly at some point in the future.

I really doubt it. To be blunt, Apple is an existence proof that security on consumer products doesn't provide business value in proportion to its cost. Keeping users safe is seldom worth investing in.

Well, at least not until you get a sony-sized screwup...

That's sort of a strange thing to say considering that iOS and app store sandboxing are doing more to innovate in the security department than any other consumer device manufacturer.
