@tapbot_paul Why not play around during the beta period anyway? Convictions that strong?

@tapbot_paul Just saw this. Disregard my question please.https://twitter.com/ow/status/745246884722249728 …

Just to be clear that wasn’t a specifically target ad. Apple’s algorithm chose that placement.https://twitter.com/chockenberry/status/745296314091503616 …

@tapbot_paul these 2 apps are always mentioned together. Seems like a win for the algorithm showing relevant app ads, no? -
.
@tapbot_paul for the developer, sure your competition being displayed prominently sucks. But as a consumer, what would be a better ad? -
@_timcarroll not having an ad at all would be what I’d prefer as a consumer. -
@tapbot_paul oh I agree with that. But as a consumer in a world where App Store ads exist, relevant ones are preferred

@andy_matuschak@tapbot_paul If you want to get mad at anyone, be mad at Apple. Beta opt-in allows no configuration. This is all automatic.

@tapbot_paul haven’t@cue said that you couldn’t bid on other people’s names? -
@felipecn@tapbot_paul@pschiller Said in his interview with@gruber that buying "brands" as search keywords is allowed -
@s_ridenour@tapbot_paul@pschiller@gruber oh. Not good.

@tapbot_paul what would be the kind of sponsored ad result for "tweetbot" that you'd be happy with? anything other than Tweetbot? curious -
@chrisbrandow no ads at all.

@tapbot_paul is Apple making those targeting decisions, or would IF have entered "tweetbot" as a target keyword? - View other replies

@TimHaines assuming the latter. Bad either way.

@tapbot_paul Yeah, that’s a worry. All we did was opt-in — we don’t do shitty things with keywords, either. - Show more

@tapbot_paul File a trademark infringement claim with Apple - we do this all the time for regular keyword squatting. -
@elkmovie@tapbot_paul Phil Schiller basically said that this was encouraged; that it’d be “good for” indie devs. -
@jdlien@tapbot_paul He said that about trademark squatting specifically? That's going to piss off a lot of devs-with-trademarks. - View other replies

@jdlien Personally I have no qualms about C&D'ing people into explicitly listing 'pleco' as a keyword to *not* match, if needed.
