A Washington nonprofit group sued Apple in federal court Sunday, demanding that it remove Telegram, a chat and social media app, from its app store for failing to crack down on violent, extremist conversation in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Filing the suit was the Coalition for a Safer Web, a nonpartisan group that advocates for technologies and policies to remove extremist content from social media, and the coalition's president, (((Marc Ginsberg))), a former U.S. ambassador to Morocco.

"Telegram stands out by itself as the superspreader [of hateful speech], even compared to Parler," Ginsberg said in an interview.

Ginsberg, who is Jewish, asserts in the suit that Telegram's anti-Semitic content puts him in peril and that his ownership of an iPhone gives him standing to sue Apple in federal court to require that the company enforce its terms of service barring hate speech and incitement to violence on apps carried by the App Store.

230 protection. If Telegram does not moderate content this case will get booted.

However, since Apple removes other apps, they're possibly considered a publisher.

In any case, the real winner is China. Why would Israel or "the Jews" be interested in further crippling and dividing the country that has given them the most military help? If America falls, then Israel is fucked.
