Apple recently changed its App Store rules to delist apps that have not been updated for a substantial period of time. This led many developers to express dissatisfaction since their apps do not require regular updating in order to function properly. Apple has responded to those developers in a press release, saying that if their app has been taken down due to this, it probably deserved so.

The truth is not universally enough acknowledged that a man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of political influence.
