That is only one controversial App Store issue in which Gruber has sided with Apple. Even then he did have some criticism of it: "I concur that worst aspect of these new subscription policies is that something that used to be allowed now is not. It has a bait-and-switch feel to it."

ubernostrum should not have been downvoted. Gruber has consistently been highly critical about other App Store policies:

The only thing more consistent than Gruber's support of Apple is the ad hominem attacks inevitably made against him.
