Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk said today on Twitter that Apple has threatened to “withhold” Twitter from its App Store, suggesting that Apple is less than happy with the state of content moderation on the social news platform.
It’s important to note that Musk used the word “withhold” and not remove. Withholding Twitter from the App Store suggests that Twitter may be having difficulties updating its app, which must pass an Apple App Store review for compliance with app submission guidelines. As a point of reference, Spotify’s recent app update which including various ways for customers to buy audiobooks wasTwitter's recent app updates on the App Store.
That may be happening here, though the App Store listing for the Twitter app shows it was updated as recently as a week ago, and four times in the last month. Musk recently retweeted a tweet saying that Apple “should be more transparent about their processes and probably not have such a monopoly” and another that said “Apple should support free speech.” He’s also published a Twitter poll asking whether Apple should publish “all censorship actions it has taken that affect its customers,” which so far has over 1.3 million votes and an 85% “yes” leaning.
In perhaps a lack of speech that speaks volumes, Apple’s official Twitter account currently is following zero people and has exactly zero tweets:
