I called it last thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19038328), but I'm legit impressed Apple went through with it.

This might open the floodgates for Apple to shut down even more certs.



More than that, I think this will result in Apple being a bit less laissez faire about what companies do with their certificates. I think they may even look to change the system, maybe make it so that enterprise certificates have to register the devices they are installed on.


Exactly.

I expect in future you'll need to push these apps to the official app store, but have the ability to restrict who downloads them (to registered devices, or accounts - like with the Play Store beta program).
