Queer People Are Asking Apple to Stand Up and Enforce Its Own Policies
\u201cEnough is enough, how much longer is @Apple going to stand by and let Twitter become a cess pit of incitement of violence against the LGBTQ community? Musk clearly won't do anything and has only emboldened this. Apple needs to boot Twitter off the app store.\u201d— Alejandra Caraballo (@Alejandra Caraballo) 1669152247
People are reminding Apple that they have already acted to stop hate speech on the Apple Store
\u201cHey @apple there is literally no reason to keep twitter in the App Store, it\u2019s being explicitly driven to enable hate speech and you\u2019re associating your brand with it. You\u2019ve removed other hate-oriented apps, do the right thing.\u201d— Lyra, Esq., is NOT DAREDEVIL (@Lyra, Esq., is NOT DAREDEVIL) 1669152531
Musk is terrified of this
\u201cMusk is terrified of Apple booting Twitter off of its app store. Start asking apple why they continue to support and platform this kind of hate on their devices.\u201d— Alejandra Caraballo (@Alejandra Caraballo) 1669152247
The head of Apple Store deleted his own Twitter account recently
\u201cWow... Phil Schiller deactivated his Twitter account. Phil is responsible for the Apple App Store and Apple Events. If Apple pulls Twitter from the App Store, Twitter is done.\u201d— Christopher Bouzy (@Christopher Bouzy) 1669043378
But Apple still allows Truth Social on the store, so they might let Twitter become an equally dark space.
\u201c@cbouzy Truth Social is available on the Apple App Store. So unlikely they will be pulling Twitter. Likely a upper staff security type action.\u201d— Christopher Bouzy (@Christopher Bouzy) 1669043378
