‘Illegal Religious Texts’ – Apple Removes Quran and Bible Apps in China at the Request of Govt Officials
Apple removed a Quran app and a Bible app at the request of Chinese officials.
The Chinese officials said the apps, Quran Majeed and Bible App by Olive Tree, broke laws on “illegal religious texts.”
Apple removed the apps because it is their policy to “comply with local laws.”
“According to Apple, our app Quran Majeed has been removed from the China App Store because it includes content that is illegal in China as determined by the CAC, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines,” Hasan Shafiq Ahmed, head of growth at Pakistan Data Management, told Business Insider in an email.
