So, just in case anyone was still on the Dash developer's side of things.

All the lovely utility apps on the "relative's" developer account were developed by the dude himself, and were still being developed by him in the time period that the review fraud was happening, which proves the other account was still being used by him and not some relative he bears no responsibility for.

LOL that Marco Arment et al are trying to save face after defending the guy.

Dash developer continues self-own, now effectively blames his mom for all those fraudulent reviews

LOL this guy's story just keeps getting better and better. Says he had his mom set up a business account in a bank in Romania while he was in college, and then a few years later gave her the other developer account.

He didn't mention the fraudulent reviews at all, which means that either he made them before he gave his mom the other account, or his mom made them. If he's telling the truth this time. If. This time.

Some people have been tweeting stuff like, "But at least we stood up for an indie developer!" and it's pretty eyeroll-worthy.

edit: :tinfoil: I wonder how many of the developers that rushed to defend this dude have done some shady stuff with the App Store/reviews/etc themselves and are just projecting :tinfoil:

Marco arment is not 'tech press' by any stretch of the definition. he's a software developer with a podcast.

nice! that's a much better solution if your home button breaks than using assistive touch. years ago i hosed up my 4s when i took a drunken dive down some nyc subway station stairs.

the physical home button was hosed and i had to use two taps with assistive touch to get the drat homescreen until i replaced it
