> https://github.com/nextcloud/ios/blob/master/COPYING.iOS I tend to think of this as reaction to GPL FUD; I know some people who have these so they never have to actually figure out the answer to this question. > https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12827624 I have argued that a close reading of the TOS currently seems to allow GPL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21943994 > https://www.fsf.org/blogs/licensing/more-about-the-app-store... Again, this is super old. Do you have anything newer?

> I believe that the current terms leave the App Store open to GPL software Please read the following: https://github.com/nextcloud/ios/blob/master/COPYING.iOS https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12827624 https://www.fsf.org/blogs/licensing/more-about-the-app-store... > Also, Apple will only remove software if you notify them of copyright infringement; it's not their job to preemptively perform licensing enforcement. Developers of GPL software have had different experiences with Apple than what you're asserting. There is a direct incentive for Apple to police licensing incompatibilities if they are profiting from illegal distribution of GPL software on their platform.
