Some relevant Apple marketing statements [1]:

"The apps you love. From a place you can trust."

"For over a decade, the App Store has proved to be a safe and trusted place to discover and download apps."

"Every day, moderators review worldwide App Store charts for quality and accuracy.”

"Dedicated to trust and safety.”

"Apps must adhere to our guidelines.”

"From more videos to rankings and reviews, there are loads of ways to help you pick the app that’s right for you.”

"ensuring that the apps we offer are held to the highest standards for privacy, security, and content. Because we offer nearly two million apps — and we want you to feel good about using every single one of them."

"When you download an app, it should work as promised. Which is why human App Reviewers ensure that the apps on the App Store adhere to our strict app review standards. Our App Store Review Guidelines require apps to be safe, provide a good user experience, comply with our privacy rules, secure devices from malware and threats, and use approved business models."

So does that mean that you can sue Apple if an app fails at any of these?

Of course not, because lying for Apple is common business practice nowadays.

"no reasonable person would possibly believe these statements as true."

That statement from the courts has allowed all sorts of lying in marketing.

Marketing is about to become a synonym to lying in the legal sense... therefore lying is ok.

> because lying for Apple is common business practice nowadays.

To be scrupulouly fair, the "for Apple" is 100% redundant.
