Maybe it’s time App stores follow the FDA’s footsteps and disclose an app’s “nutritional value”

Apple announced the exact same feature 9 months after I published my concept, even framed it identically:
“For food, you have nutrition labels…so we thought it would be great to have something similar for apps.” — Erik Neuenschwander, Apple’s user privacy manager, WWDC 2020
