______________________________
Apple is requesting that we shut down 3 channels used by the people of Belarus to expose the identities of their oppressors.
@karatelibelarusi @chatpartizan @belarusassholes
Their concern is that publishing the personal information of law enforcers and propagandists may incite violence.
I think this situation is not black and white and would rather leave the channels be, but typically Apple doesn’t offer much choice for apps like Telegram in such situations. Unfortunately, I assume these channels will end up getting blocked on iOS, but remain available on other platforms.
P. S. Everyone is welcome to express their views and comment on this post provided they stay on-topic and use English. Thanks!

It seems, HN automatically bans everything submitted from https://t.me:

and from meduza.io:
https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=meduza.io
which is totally unfair in my view. So I submitted this news as it is.
Apple have too much power now and can decide what should and should not be done in different counties.
Tell apple to fuck off...after collecting a ton of apps allowed to do the same thing on their platform.
