The multinational has removed dozens of apps, even though the Kremlin’s censorship body did not order the move. These services, half-permitted by the government, enable people in Russia to access social networks and independent media

    The U.S. company — whose phones are still sold in Russian stores despite the firm officially leaving the market due to the invasion of Ukraine…

    Apple taking a brave stand as ever.

      Apple left Russia but their phones are still making it there from China. What stand do you mean?

        I thought about that, but it would affect iPhone users from outside Russia who are traveling in Russia, and Apple probably wouldn’t want that.

      Is your expectation that Apple will send in troops to raid phone stores inside of Russia?
