A top Federal Communications Commission (FCC) official has expressed concern over Apple’s censorship apparently to appease the Chinese Communist Party.
Brendon Carr, the FCC commissioner, recently told NTD, an affiliate of The Epoch Times, that he is concerned about Apple’s App Store repeatedly blocking the Voice of America app in China, which he believes was done to placate the Chinese regime.
“I think it’s quite ironic for him [Tim Cook] to come to Washington, D.C., and give that speech,” the commissioner told NTD, “while at the same time Apple’s conduct in China shows that they are actually doing the bidding of the communist regime. And so, I think that’s quite disturbing.”
