NEW YORK —
Following a request from the Department of Justice, Apple has removed
ICEBlock and similar apps that allow people to alert others nearby
about sightings of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in their
area. President Donald Trump and his administration have railed
against the apps for months, arguing that they pose a threat to ICE
agents.
In an email to ICEBlock creator Joshua Aaron, Apple wrote that "upon
re-evaluation," the app does not comply with its app store guidelines
around "objectionable" and "defamatory, discriminatory, or
mean-spirited content," according to a copy of the message viewed by
CNN.
