I edited my post to include a video I highly recommend you watch as it will better explain what I was saying.

It’s not the drivers. I suppose you could say drivers have become slightly more distracted due to touchscreen consoles, but the real issue is vehicles keep getting larger and pedestrians no longer ride up the hood onto the roof when being hit by a car. Instead you are hit by a 5 foot tall wall (grill) and die, and the driver doesn’t brake because they never even saw you due to the enormous blind spot in front of their truck/suv

EDIT: I'm getting a disturbing amount of pushback on this comment, so I'm dropping this video here: These Stupid Trucks are Literally Killing Us | Not Just Bikes

I kinda fear that Apple might turn evil and start banning apps from the app store

I don’t know what rock you’ve been living under, but I’ve been using iOS since day one and Apple has been banning apps left and right this entire time. Most just don’t make it on in the first place. Sometimes they sneak hidden features in though like so: https://www.imore.com/game-boy-emulator-sneaks-app-store-disguised-messaging-app
