That's not a fair complaint. It can be turned around.

In fact YOU (well, I mean Apple) cannot have it both (other) ways. It's not fair to arbitrarily remove legitimate apps, lock down the devices, under the guise of user safety but in the end fail to actually provide the level of security at all that people now expect and paid the price of the device not being GP.

If Apple is so sure of their measures they should also cover (i.e. pay up) any damages when fraudulent or dangerous apps do make it to the store or are not removed in a timely fashion. The fees they siphon off from app revenue should probably go there.
