Seems easy enough to preserve old development files long enough to outlast the companies that own the IP. Just gotta not touch them for a decade or two and then "accidentally" find them.

Its why the younger generation uses words like "Unalive". They're growing up on puritanical platforms that use automation to censor sensitive topics and they have to find creative ways to express themselves to get around the censorship.

If the apps don't work without network access and they don't have an obvious need for network access, then I don't want them on my phone. If that's the case, then either app is poorly made or it is being used to spy on people with unnecessary telemetry.
