They should use all that filthy money they are making from 30% revenue theft on their app store to pay out their bug bounty participants properly.

Theft?

>"I should have access ... for free."

OP never actually said any of that. You're assuming that that's what they think, when they actually might be content with a much lower percentage. Ask questions of people to get clarification, as user htk did, instead of insinuating they're ignorant asses.

Call me crazy, but if someone uses the word “theft” I think it’s implicit that it’s not a question of degree. Theft of pennies is still theft.

So I think it’s a perfectly valid assumption that OP thinks 0% is the right percentage.

[heytherewhat]

Wrong. 30% is too high. They should charge a large chunk lower.

> perfectly valid assumption that OP thinks 0% is the right percentage.

Pfffffft. NO! Of course they should be able to make lots of money. 30% is insane, though.

It costs nothing to publish on Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android (it costs to be on the play store but not to publish). Plenty of free .apks on github or itch.io for example). Not sure where you got this idea that "every other platform also costs something to publish on it"
