Stupid or not it's about the principle. Today it's something stupid no one really cares about, but a standard is now set. Next thing you know they'll start limiting air drop to being enabled only for 10 minutes to limit discourse in China or some other country.. Wait a second.

The point being, standards are different depending on the app / provider. That's the bigger issue.

And Musk won't reinstate Alex Jones because Sandy Hook and "I care about children", but has reinstated Brett Stevens (who inspired and praised Anders Breivik, who slaughtered point blank dozens of kids).

"Principles" or the pot calling the kettle black

I mean, I'll just be mad about air drop being limited in China directly. I don't need to also be mad about a stupid frog out of principle.

I'd be concerned if I saw a Swastik or Iron Cross in the App Store images of an app. I don't want that crowd using my platform.

You better ban the five million Jain's from your app too while you are at it.

There are probably some modern day Celtic based religions too, should ban members of those too.

Can't have pagans spreading their supremacist symbols.

It is not Swastika but hackencruz.

Other nations/religions have been using Swastika for about 2000 years.

Also, what if there is Hindu religious app (the app where you can listen to religious songs etc) with Swastika as it's logo.
