Reason #4324324 why I’ll never buy an Apple. If you’re not jailbroken by the time they pull it, you’ll never have it.

"all points of view being represented, as long as the apps are respectful to users with differing opinions"

What does that mean, exactly?

It just amazes me how much these articles twist and omit the truth. They love to pick up on speculative side themes and then present them as the whole.

If folks want to make an app to share fairy tales like those of the Q cult, they should be free to do so.

No need for Apple’s heavy handed censorship.

purely political move. How many flat earth apps do they have?

Obviously everyone will assume it is politically motivated, but Apple is notoriously strict that developers follow their user interface standards precisely. That is why every Mac or iOS application has similar style menus, keyboard shortcuts, etc. So it could be that they messed up with something along those lines and that is why it got pulled.

Time named Q one of the 25 most influential people on the Internet.

I wouldn’t call that “fringe”...

This will just make Q bigger. When you censor something it becomes bigger.

It’s called the Streisand effect.

An aside ... why don’t they remove Watchmaker for the Apple Watch ... it is click bait and has never worked even though they (the developers) continue to say it does.

Since when? I just red pilled one of my employees and she downloaded the app about 2 hours ago...and has been in and out of my office asking questions ever since. I finally had to tell her to read drops at home and text me her questions. LOL.
