China does not negotiate with terrorists. 
Once full censorship is in place it will be VERY hard to spread things like this, and also precisely WHEN Apple started lying about privacy & encryption!!
This is really bad, if China gets to choose who will get a license, it gives them a lot of power over US companies.
This is why we #android #grapheneos
And #calyxos
And #divestos
And e.foundation #eOS
And #lineageos
Sachez que la plupart des appareils Android sont fabriqués en Asie du Sud où quant la Chine fait ce qu'elle veut d'ailleurs s'approprie des îles et achète des terres agricoles de paysans sans ces États puissent réagir Xi reconstruit de jour en jour l'Empire de Chine
And still the most hackable and rootable and cheap #android devices also come from south east asia #SEA so its mostly a #degoogle thing. Not a tall order task to ask, but the correct alignment of incentives certainly requires a lot of education.
And iPhone 15 sales are gonna skyrocket regardless. Sheeple get what they deserve.
uffdah
It's sad to see far Apple has fallen from it believed in. In 1984, Steve Jobs has this mind-blowing ad on 1984 that was played at the Superbowl and in it, it said
" On January 14th, Apple Computer will introduce Macintosh. And you'll see why 1984 won't be like 1984"
the trend is clear
Wait until the whole West becomes China clones 😁
app store, more like crap store ammiright? lol bu dum dum tish
CCP forced the Apple mobile phone store to remove Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and other apps in China. It seems that Cook refused to hand over the privacy information of Chinese users of iPhone last month. The evil CCP retaliated against Apple and asked Apple to remove the American APP in China.
Yea & he also gives it to the NSA and the whole security council whenever they desire, so I don’t want to hear it.
Does Obtainium work well in China?
There are random checks of mobiles in public transport by the police to find any illegal apps or VPN, no warrants needed.
damn
Cook, CEO of Apple.
This battle with CCP is to protect the privacy information of Chinese users.
Cook said he would put Chinese user information in the United States and not give it to the CCP. CCP was angry and forced the Apple Store to remove the American APP.
The evil CCP is going to collapse.
Is the new rule applying to all apps, or only to apps for China Apple Store?
Only Apple's stores in China should be adjusted to remove all American apps. CCP requires Apple to remove the U.S. APP and not allow Chinese to download the U.S. APP with a Chinese ID. Chinese can register an U.S. ID to download the U.S. APP, which has no effect. Chinese users basically have two IDs, one American ID and one Chinese ID.
This is reasonable now. Can’t imagine it applies to all Apple Stores… 😅
Damus software also uses the US ID to use and log in. Apple ID in China can't use Damus. Blocked by an evil firewall.
I am not clear on how these four groups are affected by the new rules:
- iPhone users in China
- iPhone users outside of China
- App developers in China
- App developers outside of China
All four groups of users know how to use American IDs in China.
They all have two Apple IDs.
It doesn't matter.
Good to know
300 million users in China have not registered Apple IDs, and they all use a flash system to install and download APPs.
That is hopeful :)
There is an app in China that helps Chinese Apple users download the APP.
This flash app actually has 300 million Apple users, indicating that 300 million iPhone users in China do not have an Apple ID, and they don't know how to register an Apple ID and can only use the flash APP to use the iPhone.
Many Chinese people don't even have an email address.
They don't know how to register an Apple ID. Those 300 million iPhones are all low-ed-educated groups.
They don't understand that the iPhone has its own iCloud mailbox to register an Apple ID.
China wants controll over apps, france wants controll over browsers. EU wants break encryption, home appliances manufacturers want spy what we do at home.
Whole world move to totalitarian dystopia.

Ah man, I only just got an iPhone 😭🫠🥲
Time to get an Android phone and flash GrapheneOS
Communism Style 🇨🇳
Don’t they have their chips manufactured in china? How could they move the production that quickly? Plus where would it be possible to manufacture as cheaply?
Wen Nostrola?
Nope

I cannot distinguish between Canadian and Chinese government policy anymore
苹果向中国屈服，开始执行应用商店规则。CCP用利益来绑架你，叫你服从！CCP非常邪恶！👊👊👊
这个是不是仅仅针对中国区苹果商店的啊？
是的
机翻的网文：
苹果向中国鞠躬,开始执行App Store规则
威廉·加拉格尔的头像威廉·加拉格尔 | 2023年10月3日
苹果已经开始要求新应用获得中国政府的许可,然后才能将其添加到中国 应用商店。
中国宣布了其新的应用法律 2023年8月, 说开发人员必须要么驻扎在该国,要么与该国合作。然后,在用户的个人数据保存位置上存在隐私问题,但是法律主要赋予中国政府对其在该国可以出售哪些应用程序的全面控制权。
以前,人们相信中国专门执行了新法律,以便可以打击包括Facebook和Instagram在内的社交媒体公司。此类服务已经在线禁止,但可以通过应用程序访问。
苹果抵抗了 法律变更,据报道有工作人员会见中国官员 对象 对它。即使遵循这一点,苹果 仍然坚持 尽管中国抗议。
Apple不是屈服，苹果公司与CCP玩游戏。Apple想保护中国5亿用户信息。有必要让步给CCP。但是核心价值还是保留着。Apple不交中国用户给CCP。这才Apple令佩服。Apple暂时妥协CCP。是给时间给印度和越南，印尼等国家工厂做好准备工作。目前Apple新iPhone生产质量靠中国工人。印度和越南、印尼等国生产iPhone质量控制不理想。返修率太高。Apple还得依靠中国工人做出优质iPhone。所以，暂时与CCP妥协。库克有智慧的人。普通的美国人是无法与CCP沟通处理好关系。库克已经拿捏土匪党CCP的七寸。
下一个要与CCP斗智斗勇就是特斯拉的Musk，musk也和cook一样遇到相同的难题。CCP的邪恶令外资企业很头痛。特斯拉更麻烦。CCP垃圾政府禁特斯拉车主去机场和上高速公司路，很多大商场都禁特斯拉汽车停车。垃圾CCP下一步会与特斯拉Musk斗。musk迟早与CCP成敌人。反正特斯拉在2030年前搬离中国。理由和谷歌公司搬离中国一样。价值冲突。
CCP的垃圾五毛狗🐶，网络水军，每日都诋毁特斯拉。特斯拉的车主很麻烦，不给上高速公路，不给特斯拉车主进入机场，中国许多部门也禁特斯拉汽车进入。开特斯拉汽车的车主办事不方便，给车主添堵。购买特斯拉汽车在中国非常麻烦，邪恶CCP让特斯拉在上海生产特斯拉汽车。确禁特斯拉车开车的自由。邪恶的CCP。中国那些垃圾五毛狗也垃圾、为了领取0.5元人民币发贴诋毁骂特斯拉。
在中国开日本车和特斯拉比较麻烦。垃圾人愚蠢的中国人太多。CC P垃圾公关人员舆论引导被洗脑的垃圾中国人打砸日本车。引导中国人骂日本，骂美国。CCP控制中国媒体。每天中国垃圾的媒体都是批斗美国和日本。美国和日本，是邪恶CCP转移中国内部矛盾的渠道。中国人愚蠢，因为有防火墙，99%的中国人被CCP洗脑误导。
CCP的媒体舆论都是引导中国人仇恨美国和日本。中国人无法获取真相。活在信息的茧房里面。没有辨别是非的能力。
Indeed, the Chinese government has gotten really bad lately.
We live in society.
Apple boys down so bad it's not even funny anymore, hahaha
It's disgusting to see the red "blood flag" of CCP.🤢🤮🤢🤮🤮🤮🥴🤮
We'll see so much more of it though. This Simulation is programed to pit the blue US eagle against the red Chinese dragon
The Red Chinese Dragon has nothing to do with the evil 👿 CC P.
The CCP belongs to a political party of the former Soviet Union.
It has kidnapped and enslaved the Chinese for 74 years.
The goal for nostr is for it to be accepted and loved by everyone in china including the govt. It is not a threat, it will bring out the best in every nation that uses it. And they in turn, will talk to other nations that use it, using it.
What are you trying to say? Strategically, is it better to have Nostr-apps that comply with the CCP in the short term?
this old world of APPs 🤣
PWA is the future
Sigh
Well presumably apple also requires approval from the US/EU/UK govnts too. Why is it worse when china requests approval.
Increasing the lines are blured.
I don’t blame any country for wanting this level of control in the face of the poisonous progressive agendas that have made their way into the United States.
Nah, I blame them. These are stupid laws. At the end of the day how do we know "everyone on the right" thinks the same. No the overtones window would probably shift.
China's laws are shit.
I am torn. They’re not plagued with the same issues that we are socially. They appear to have had a very successful nation for a very long time. Despite government changes. In the face of their ethical issues, I’d almost prefer them over my kid being taught about castration in schools, gender identity and vaccination. They have a homogenous society, low crime and tons of wealth. It’s not as simple as “china bad”.
So censorship is good as long as it aligns with your values?
So if you don’t comply, do you just not show up in China?
Always have done
Like other company doing business in China. Solution? PWA!
You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Smh
China’s coming hard now
They make up most of their iPhone buyers after all. No one is surprised
Fuk apple!
developer licences are coming.
"Say, that's some nice looking code you got there. You got a licence?"
Don't feel too special lol...
"Those existing apps of course include social media ones. With China banning, for instance, Facebook online, it's unlikely that the country's regulators will issue a licence for its app."

Was only a matter of time. At least there is no longer any excuse to stay with iPhone after this.
Lame but anticipated. No one at Apple could explain investors why not to obey to the rules of one the worlds biggest markets.
Master and Slave relationship ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
