banana69··on Is this web service illegal?
Dear wmf,

First of all, thank you very much for your kind reply :)!

It would be great if I can get a more detail about how "password anti-pattern" works!

banana69··on Is this web service illegal?
This web service asks me to login using my iTunes account to access to my purchase history of my purchased apps. After logging in using my iTunes account, I have received an e-mail from Apple that my account maybe used by third-party user/apps. I believe Apple does not allow other service to use iTunes account for login credential. Is this service using illegal or near illegal method to access to my purchase history of my apps? Or does Apple provide an official API to access to its users purchase history? I checked, but Apple doesn't seem to provide purchase history API.

How do they know which apps I have on my iPhone? They said they are using iCloud API, but is that possible?
