“Apple utilizes developers for vast amounts of unpaid QA labor.”
Apple won’t say whether it can reproduce a bug, closes reports as “Unable to diagnose” without asking for more, and then makes them impossible to reopen. It demands full sysdiagnose dumps from developers’ personal devices while selling privacy as a human right. Web filing is gone, and nobody outside Apple can search the database. The most profitable company in the world runs its QA on volunteers and treats them like a nuisance.
