Apparently this has been going on for a while, but this is the first time I have read about it. While the Chinese government cites illegal content such as gambling apps, industry analysts, that are familiar with the way a communist government thinks, said this needed to be seen as a bigger part of the US / China trade conflict. Maybe we get to see iPhone manufacturer come back to the US? A company worth $1 trillion dollars should be able to afford that, right?
On Tuesday evening, the same day as Apple’s earnings, China’s official state broadcaster railed against the firm in a 30 minute special report, accusing it of allowing illegal content, including gambling apps, onto its platform. The program was one of at least five reports by state media that targeted the company in the past week.
“The Chinese government is maybe trying to warn the U.S. government in a similar way by saying, your tech firm in China is not that safe either,” he said.
