Comment on Apple quietly deletes nearly a hundred VPNs that allowed Russians to get around censorship

Suspicious!

You can use most VPN services via the Wireguard or OpenVPN apps though, or even via some of the protocols natively supported by iOS not requiring any third-party app.

The issue is 3rd party apps make it easier for non-techie people to subvert censorship. Raising the bar works bigly in the Kremlin’s favor.

    Apple’s shareholders and BoD should be thrown off the highest building imaginable.

Absolutely, in addition to this, you can sideload apps as well without issue. I do it all the time

Nothing suspicious. Russia is openly engaging in a war of aggression and money laundering. They have a storied history of corruption, kleptomania, and deceitful diplomacy (HUR HUR AMERICA BAD TOO!). An American company is trying to ~~do the bare minimum~~ put pressure on Russians.
