Putting in fake reviews or having friends review your app is nothing ethical, but "wire fraud"?
Stop throwing big words around. I was with you until your last two posts.
Fake reviews are common problems with App store. Actually, it is a common problem with the whole web-based commerce. It is nothing new, and it is not limited to small time developers. There have been scandals with big companies too.
On the other hand, it is a problem regardless whether your opponent is a real obj-C developer or not, so leave that out in your arguments please.
I am 100% sure that every iPhone developer (including me, and YOU) have put in a good review for his own app.
But you have seen nothing yet.
The real evil ones are the ones who gave competitors fake negative reviews. Those are obvious to spot too.
Unfortunately, both positive and negative are part of life on App Store. Stop being so dramatic.
