New Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk said on Monday that Apple has threatened to block Twitter from the Apple app store, but has not given a reason. The news comes after a concerted campaign by anti-free speech progressive activists lobbying to force Google and Apple to block Twitter from their app stores in an effort to destroy the site after Musk rolled back progressive censorship.
A month ago a jovial Musk arrived at Twitter HQ; now the firm is in a fight for survival from nihilist progressives fighting free speech.
Musk: “Apple has also threatened to withhold Twitter from its App Store, but won’t tell us why”

An hour earlier Musk announced Apple had dropped almost all advertising on Twitter, “Apple has mostly stopped advertising on Twitter. Do they hate free speech in America?”, adding an appeal to Apple CEO Tim Cook, “What’s going on here @tim_cook?”

Musk’s Tesla automobile customers could be a casualty in Apple’s war with Musk.

Last Friday Musk said he would create a smartphone if Apple and Google banned Twitter from their app stores.
“I certainly hope it does not come to that, but, yes, if there is no other choice, I will make an alternative phone”
