What if Twitter and Meta ban Apple on their platform?
Just a thought experiment, let say Apple ban Twitter and FB, and in return they ban Apple for violating "free speech spirit" or some other made up rules. Not only all official/store accounts banned, but any pictute that has an iphone/ipad... any text mention of Apple products, discussion about Apple... Who will win in this war? #twitter #apple #meta
This is an idiotic thought experiment.
How?
Bloomberg it is not an idiotic thought experiment especially outside of US. Apple doesn’t rule all markets.
All 3 ban and censor people at will...so everyone loses.
Easier to ban an app(product) than ban posts(information)
Interesting that most people think Apple would win. I think if they're completely cut off from social media it will greatly affect their advertising/sales. Not to mention a lot of people will move to other mobile platform if they cannot install FB/Instagram and Twitter.
Assuming Twitter and Facebook ban Apple and Apple bans Twitter and Facebook, Instagram etc then who loses more? Easily Zuck and Elon would lose the most
4th option. Nobody wins
Humanity wins
To make it interesting they should also ban Andriod.
Wow, you thought about this
Ban everything and go full China
Apple, easily, without question
Why?
Facebook and Twitter are luxuries. Smartphones are effectively necessities in modern living and Apple has a very deep moat with the iPhone. People will not mass-exodus to Android, at least not quickly. Especially not after spending $$$$ on an iPhone or being tied into a payment plan.
