Apple Blocks Several US-Based Messaging Apps in China
Apple has reportedly removed several messaging apps that offer end-to-end encrypted communication from its App Store in China. These apps include Signal, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger. This move comes amid increasing pressure from the Chinese government for tech companies to comply with its strict regulations on online communication and censorship. Users in China can still access these apps through other means, but Apple’s decision to block them from its App Store restricts their availability to Chinese consumers.
