Hello,
I heard a lot that it's not legal to run macOS on a non-Apple machine. Do you know anything about this?

Thanks

Docker-OSX links to this article explaining the situation. tl;dr it's legal as long as you use it in good faith for security research, and report security bugs to Apple. IANAL.

As far as I know you are not able to sign in into apple using your apple id if you are not using genuine apple device. So you are not able to sign you iOS apps and publish them via xcode. Or not?

I haven't published via own keys. But I was able to sign in via Apple ID just fine. The VM appears as a Mac Pro.
