Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
Not only do Big Tech companies regulate freedom of speech in America – they attempt to regulate it across the entire planet.
CNN:
Apple has removed VKontakte, a top Russian social media platform, from its app store, according to the app’s developer.
Apple’s decision also affects other iOS apps produced by VKontakte’s parent, the technology giant VK, according to a blog post Tuesday by the company.
“Now some VK applications are blocked by Apple, so they are not available for download and update in the App Store,” VK wrote in the blog post. Existing installations of those apps should continue to function normally, VK added.
VK apps provide a range of services including email, food delivery and digital payments. It is the fifth-largest website by traffic in Russia, by some estimates. The company’s social network has 97 million monthly users worldwide, while its email service, Mail.ru, has 46 million users within Russia.

Apple confirmed the removals to CNN Business and said the decision aims to comply with newly imposed UK sanctions against Russia. The UK government on Monday had said it was targeting dozens of Russian elites in response to Russia’s “illegal sham referendums in Ukraine” that claimed to show support for Ukraine’s integration with Russia.
This is obviously designed to push Russians off of VK and onto Twitter and Facebook – there is no other reason you would do this. What Twitter and Facebook do is ban anything pro-Russian and promote everything anti-Russian.
It’s counterintuitive, but I’ve said for a long time that countries banning Western social media is an action in support of freedom of speech. What these platforms do is convince everyone to get on them, then start censoring in order to push their agenda. Twitter literally banned the president of Nigeria for talking about a policy they did not like. It’s just lunacy.
Along with banning content they don’t like, they will manipulate politics and society in countries by pushing content they do like. For example, they will promote gay anal sex in Christian and Islamic countries that ban these acts. They will also promote politicians that they want to win – always those backed by George Soros and other Western/Jew forces.
No sovereign nation can remain sovereign while allowing American Big Tech companies to monitor and decide the nature of the public discourse. You would have thought that after the United States used Twitter and such to overthrow all those governments during the “Arab Spring” that every country would start banning these apps. But they did not.
