iPhone users in the EU: DO NOT delete your alternative marketplace apps
iOS 17.5 breaks alternative marketplace app re-installation. MarketplaceKit now generates a different client_id every time it is called. Now there's no way for alternative marketplace developers to identify users who have already purchased the marketplace app.

Here’s my iPhone box collection. I have the iPhones still. Does anyone else keep the boxes, even when they have no intention of selling them for the foreseeable future?
‘British newspaper groups have warned #Apple that any move to impose a so-called “web eraser” tool to block advertisements would put the financial sustainability of journalism at risk.
