App Store Removes NTV Apps Worldwide
The App Store has begun deleting the NTV, Segodnya, and 25 Years of NTV apps around the world, while services will remain available in Russia. This is stated in the comments of the TV channel distributed on Friday, TASS reports.
“NTV applications are being removed from the App Store around the world. Services will remain available only in Russia. This decision of the App Store was explained by the fact that NTV applications "contain content that is harmful to individuals or groups of individuals." We are talking about the applications "NTV", "Today" and "25 years of NTV". Applications previously installed on user devices will work,” the comment says.
The channel's editor-in-chief Alexandra Kosharnitskaya noted that bans on any Russian content, including NTV content, have long been a part of everyday news, there are countries where the broadcast of the international version of NTV is completely turned off. “In early March, our YouTube channels with seventeen million subscribers were blocked by Google in more than 70 countries, and then all over the world, then Google told us frankly: “Take out the news and politics, leave the entertainment - and we will return everything! We have no other freedom of speech for you!” she added.
