What does “ban” mean? They could only block the app, which no sane individual would install anyway.

@klaus I think that's what they mean.
I hate using targeted apps. Too much crap to deal with.

Exactly. Just make it a good website.

Exactly. Modern HTML5 pages work just as well as apps and they won’t annoy you with requests for permissions to your private stuff, endless notifications, or reduced battery life.

Then there's this reply:
So is this their normal policy? Or something new. Seems relevant.
I'd love to see what requirements the app is not meeting.
Privacy?
Something offensive?
Violent sedition?
Will Apple ban Twitter based on the comments from China and Iran?
Whoopsie! I said China. Sorry, Mr. Cook.

Apple is notoriously and EXTREMELY heavy handed in its app approval process. On multiple dimensions (quality, biz model, content).
Apple feels complete responsibility to control the end user experience.
They've also never felt the need to explain themselves in detail on their decisions.

I heard once that apple will not allow an iPhone to be used by a bad guy in a movie.

Yes, Apple does not grant freedom to App developers
You can't even talk about freedom
I'm an Apple App developer, selling for 14+ years. They don't just insist on control of everything, I believe they really hate developers.
It is kind of like TDS.
I think a year from now I'll be out of the game, just as they are finally giving a pay raise to developers. Not all developers, just the small ones.
