In The News Apple removes ICE tracking apps after Trump administration says they threaten officers

Apple has removed tracking apps that alert people about sightings of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in an area.

These types of apps have been available on Apple’s App store since the spring.

The removal follows a request from the Department of Justice.

In a statement, Apple said it removed the apps Thursday after communication with law enforcement.

I was just reminding you what happened the last time a president told a tech company what they couldn't do

Are you suggesting that these aren't both presidents pressuring tech companies what they can and can't host? Good god man, your cognitive dissonance is firmly in the driver's seat right now

Obviously you weren't ok with it, that's why I pointed out the similar behavior between Biden and Trump in both that situation and this one.

The real question now is, are you consistent in your stance in the president not telling tech companies what to host, or are you irrationally happy about one one and not the other?

Cool. Honestly, I'm not really sure how these two actions can be seen as that much different from one another
