If you try to create a new iOS/macOS software project and sign it with a "com.apple." prefix in the bundle ID, Apple's system blocks it… for example.
It's pretty clear this type of ID'ing is an issue in general, unfortunately. Companies often protect themselves as a band-aid but not others in the same situations since the problems aren't frequent enough to warrant a design change. So, when it does become a problem, it could end up being a deep one.
it definitely seems like they're using "consumer privacy" as a way to gate/limit whether other companies are allowed to build certain types of third-party apps.
These guys are probably not going to get a second try at this either with these types of headlines, and Sam Altman investing in or creating another device :(
