BAD APPLE: Gov. Ron DeSantis rips into tech giant for restricting AirDrop in China while threatening to pull Twitter from the App Store in America.
Retired U.S. Army Gen. Keith Kellogg discusses how long China protests could last and what tactics the U.S. can use to support the Chinese people on 'Cavuto: Coast to Coast.'for allegedly threatening to remove Twitter from its App store while reportedly preventing Chinese protesters from fully using its AirDrop feature.
DeSantis’ comments, made during a press conference in Duval County, came a day after Elon Musk alleged that Apple had "mostly"on Twitter and had threatened to "withhold" the social media platform from the app store. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis speaks during a"Unite and Win" event as he campaigns for re-electionon the eve of the US midterm elections, at Hialeah Park Clubhouse, in Hialeah, Florida, on November 7, 2022.
DeSantis said that congressional action might be warranted if Apple followed through on its alleged threat against Twitter after Musk reinstated previously suspended accounts. "That would be a huge, huge mistake, and it would be a really raw exercise of monopolistic power that I think would merit a response from the United States Congress," he said. "Don’t be a vassal of the [Chinese Communist Party] on one hand and then use your corporate power in the United States on the other to suffocate Americans and try to suppress their right to express themselves.
