## What Jamie wrote

The different models and control points that manage how software (apps) end up on our devices are interesting, and Apple has via its AppStore some of the most sweeping controls of any. The recent Tik Tok issues highlight how challenging it is when a company limits distribution onto their platform through one point. Snell argues that Apple should pursue a more open model like macOS uses.
