WE FOUND A WORKAROUND!!!
You guys are gonna love this. Set your clock back to a date before Apple updated the receipts and broke everything. Basically anything November 10th and back. Sure, it will break again when the clock gets to the 11th, but at least this will get your apps going until Apple fixes this mess.
This proves, the app-store is a SPOF.

A single point of failure (SPOF) is a part of a system that, if it fails, will stop the entire system from working.[1] SPOFs are undesirable in any system with a goal of high availability or reliability, be it a business practice, software application, or other industrial system.

Letting a certificate expire is a breakdown in operational procedures than cannot be allowed to happen.
It still looks like an amateur mistake from apple part.So, apparently this isn't what happened after all. Serves me right for jumping on the bandwagon in the absence of facts...

Apple decided some time ago to let its users get free operating systems.
One of the reasons was probably to get more converts and people to try it.
Since then their MacBooks or iMacs are being introduced with more features, faster processors, better cameras etc. always around the same price.
They only increased the retina lines for good reasons.
What is in an individual product calculation is unknown, but the fact is that in order to get El Capitan you do not have to pay. It is FREE!
I have a 2008 17" MBP which went through all the paid cats (skipped Lion)
Mavericks, Yosemite and now El Capitan.
All of these were FREE, so when did they include the cost for these OS in my computers?
BTW: I bought my MBP and some for others on eBay and thus paid no premium.
So, how is that being confused?
Update: Rene Ritchie at iMore has further explained what's causing Mac apps to report as "damaged" and what can be done about it.
