I am disappointed in myself that I believed this information without any evidence. I wanted to believe it because it confirmed and amplified my bias. I hope this gets more points than the first post.

There was evidence (chart showing negative income), but it was misinterpreted. What is interesting is that Twitter got a lot of corrections,but HN didn't get a bunch of iOS devs saying "No, this doesn't happen on my app" (at least not in the dozens of comments I read).
Wait till you hear the guy was technically correct, but Apple "chooses not to enforce" the rule.
A post on twitter from someone isn't much evidence, a post that got upvoted a lot seems more credible ("wisdom of the crowds" kind of thing).

I fell for it too, because it's not a far stretch to imagine Apple doing thing sort of thing.

Just yesterday I read that Audible credits expire, and the reason Audible provides is clearly just a veneer of PR over greed.
