Elon Musk must' on Apple Inc.
Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter tweeted on 1 December 2022 that the misunderstanding about Twitter potentially being removed from Apple Inc’s App store has resolved following his meeting with the iPhone maker’s Chief Executive Tim Cook.
He thanked Apple CEO Tim Cook for taking him around Apple’s beautiful head-quarter through his Twitter handle. In a follow-up tweet, Musk said: “We resolved the misunderstanding about Twitter potentially being removed from the App Store. Tim was clear that Apple never considered doing so.”
The messaging was a departure from his more heated approach earlier in the week. On Monday, he tweeted that Apple had “mostly stopped advertising on Twitter,” and questioned whether those making decisions at Apple “hate free speech in America.”
He also suggested that Apple was censoring content, posted a poll asking whether people wanted Apple to “publish all censorship actions it has taken that affect its customers,” said that Apple “threatened to withhold Twitter from its App Store” without giving a reason, and griped about the cut that Apple takes of in-app purchases made through its devices.
Musk’s public complaints sparked questions at the time about whether Apple would actually yank Twitter from the App Store, and whether Musk planned to dive even deeper into a battle with the largest public company in the U.S.
On Monday, Musk had accused Apple of threatening to block Twitter from its app store without saying why in a series of tweets that also said it had stopped advertising on the social media platform.
He had later tagged Cook’s Twitter account in another tweet, asking “what’s going on here?”
Among the list of grievances tweeted by Musk on Monday was the up to 30% fee Apple charges software developers for in-app purchases, with Musk posting a meme suggesting he was willing to “go to war” with Apple rather than paying the commission.
Apple did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Musk did not explain how the alleged misunderstanding had occurred.
