Apple News is blocked in China?
These details were supported by cNNMoney in China with numerous iPhone owners.
When working on a cellular network in Hong Kong, which isn’t subject to the censorship rules in Beijing, the program worked normally. But when joined in Beijing, an error message appeared when attempting to open reports that were formerly filled.
“Report Unavailable: News is not supported in your current area,” the message said.
The News program problem emphasizes broader challenges that other foreign organizations, and Apple, face in the nation.
Western media, including Reuters, The Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, have invested into developing Chinese language news websites.
Apple, if it hosts or markets news stories that are contentious on its program, could be setting its China company that is bigger in danger.
Businesses that resist Beijing’s censorship in many cases are penalized because of this.
Because many states have specific laws technology firms have trouble starting one piece of applications worldwide. Spain, for example, recently passed a law that requires for using snippets of news stories, news aggregators like Apple News to pay a licensing fee.
Because of this, it is not uncommon for Apple to stagger the installation of services all over the world. Apple Music, for instance, debuted in September in China, months after it was initially offered in America.
