CUPERTINO, CA — Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed this morning that he's prepared to remove the Twitter app from the App Store but that he's waiting for orders from CCP President Xi before he makes a move.
"I never make a business decision without first consulting the great and magnificent President Xi, blessings on his name," said Cook in a statement. "My company lives to serve the People's Republic of China and The Chinese Communist Party, and I will resign myself to his divine will."
"If he gives the order, Twitter will be gone from the App Store."
Cook emphasized, however, that the popular Chinese spy and child exploitation app TikTok will always have a platform in the App Store. "TikTok is an essential tool for advancing Chinese interests around the world and for protecting my cheap slave labor in the country. It will never be removed."
Chinese authorities have thanked Cook for his statement and promised to have updated orders for the tech company within a week.
At publishing time, Google claimed they were not beholden to China in any way, but that they would do whatever Apple did.
Not far from the truth.
You hit the floor when your read this so funny.
P
I thought it was ABC News.
Would that mean that Cook was Shanghaied?
(The answer is hidden; no fair Peking.)
"Yes, Your Majesty! Right away, Your Majesty! Delete the Tweet? You got it, your majesty!" |
Yet another eye-catching headline from BB, which is so close to the truth.
CNN, right?
This is believable.
This is an accurate opinion piece, in my opinion.
Not funny. Sadly, not funny.
It can raise a few sardonic laughs though.
Indistinguishable from reality.
You scared the He!! out of me, Babylon.
Stop being more close to the truth than CNN.
I like the last paragraph the best 😂
I read it somewhere; can’t remember. Don’t do CNN or any of that leftist crap.
