Usually I just let typos go, but there's a serious chance for
misunderstanding here. I meant to say "a much more draconian way THAN
Mac OS X". On the Mac code signing is just a way for users to be able
to trust that an app is from who it says it's from. On the phone it's
used to rigidly control what can and cannot run, much more draconian.
