Tensions grow between Apple’s censorship practices and Elon Musk’s Twitter
Elon Musk has claimed that Apple has threatened to “withhold” Twitter from the App Store without giving a reason.
“Apple has also threatened to withhold Twitter from its App Store, but won’t tell us why,” Musk tweeted on Monday.
The announcement came after Musk said that the iPhone maker had “mostly stopped advertising” on Twitter. He also posted a poll asking users if Apple should “publish all censorship actions it has taken that affect its customers.”
Apple is yet to respond to Musk’s claim. It is unclear what “withhold” means. In most cases, it could mean refusing updates to the app or even removing the app from the App Store completely until Twitter obeys its demands.
There have been various clues about Musk’s growing annoyance at Apple’s monopolistic practices. The Twitter owner criticized the App Store’s in-app purchases fee, calling it a “hidden 30% tax.”
Musk has said he is going to loosen the platform’s content censorship guidelines, and has already begun reinstating banned accounts.
