Apple isn't responding to requests to remove it though it's clearly fraudulent (it's even using a version of the same name) which can only be because they get a cut of the fees.

I can think of other possible explanations.

- If they are unfamiliar with your application, it's not trivial for them to definitively determine that yours is the real one.
- The app store is huge and they don't adequately staff the group responsible for investigating these sorts of claims.
- Some combination of the above explanations (including yours).

It's a problem that shows up because managers don't know what their employees are doing.

The solution is to require managers to do actual work with 20% of their time (or even 10% might be enough). If they can't do it, then they aren't qualified to manage in the industry.

After reading the title (mistake #1, I know), I assumed this was a story about how people employed in senior positions at large companies are finding themselves stuck babysitting newly-hired "vibe coders". Instead, I find a story about a former web developer who's apparently now trying to develop and sell LLMs.

I have no idea what her skill level was as a web developer, but - it sounds like she has zero experience with the sort of thing she's trying to do now. Which is fine, I guess, but she isn't a "senior developer" by any stretch of the imagination.
