Apple says believes an app for tracking the Hong Kong protests has been used to 'target and ambush police,' and so has taken it down.
It looks like Apple has kow-towed to Chinese censorship demands twice this week, taking an app off the App Store which lets Hong Kong protesters track police activity, and the app for US publication Quartz. Apple initially rejected HKMap Live's map app for facilitating and encouraging illegal activity, but the developer successfully appealed and the app admitted to the App Store.
