- Synopsis
- In 2016 and 2017, Apple refused to help the FBI access the iPhones of two mass shooters. These refusals highlighted Apple's general policy of supporting consumer privacy over public safety. Meanwhile, in China, Apple removed various VPN apps from Apple's Chinese App Store. This action elicited strong negative responses from civil rights activists and members of the U.S. government. In 2019, Apple again faced criticism for removing the HKmap.live app from the App Store, which had been used by protestors in Hong Kong. Other businesses, such as the National Basketball Association (NBA) also faced criticism for their postures toward China.
