Apple’s Great Firewall Leap: Top VPNs Vanish from App Store in Russia

In Russia, Apple’s App Store plays “peek-a-boo” with VPNs, as four top services vanish into the cyber-abyss. Kremlin says “nyet” to online freedom, and Apple obliges. #RussiaVPNs #DigitalIronCurtain

Hot Take:

Well, well, well, if it isn't Big Apple playing the role of Big Brother's little helper in the land of Russia. VPNs are getting ghosted faster than a Tinder date who brings up their ex too much. It looks like Apple's taking the "when in Rome" approach to a whole new level, except it's "when in Russia, do as the censors do." But hey, at least NordVPN took their ball and went home on their own terms, right?
