    That doesn’t make any sense at all. If 10% of apps are not getting users in china anymore then there’s fewer subscriptions and in-app purchases apple is getting a cut of (and we all know the actual math will be far harsher since china has a vested interest in blocking the most popular apps)

      The apps getting removed weren’t popular apps there in the first place

      The most popular apps here have never been the most popular apps there

      Yes, the CCP is trying to cut them off before they become popular, but it’s better for Apple to get money from the currently popular apps there
