Russia is not the only country pulling this shit. Maybe it’s time Apple creates two versions of the store, the current one, and a clone that allows everything the regulators want. When a user sets up an Apple device they are given a clear choice between the “walled garden” of safe and vetted apps, or the Wild West of anything goes. The main caveats being that if you can change from safe store to unsafe at any time but you can never come back once you do unless you wipe your device and start fresh. It should be made abundantly clear what the advantages and disadvantages are of each choice.
