Comment on Treehouse Launches iPad App, Apple Prohibits Android Lessons

Comments

Link-bait title from an obvious splog network about a company looking for any kind of PR.

From whom is that quote originating? Where is Apple's rejection letter? Which section of App Store guidelines they specifically violated?

Edit: the link was changed from a TNW piece to an admittedly better story at tech.co

Treehouse itself was quoted in the post about Apple not allowing Android content.

But "Treehouse" is a company. Usually a human at a company sends an email. Who in Treehouse sent that update? Because then we can ask him/her what section of App Store guidelines they were supposedly violating.

There was a better link posted earlier today with all the information you are requesting. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6103149

Was the Android content bundled? Could the app download it to work around the rule?

Considering that Apple has rejected books for containing links to competing websites, this isn't really a stretch.

Where is Apple's rejection letter?

Be careful assuming everything in a rejection takes place in the official rejection letter. It can also take place over the phone as well, where nothing gets written down.

Or emails can be written and never sent...
