2018 -- I'd assume that this is posted today as a pointed jab at X getting quite different treatment despite Grok being used to make child porn and other revenge-porn style content.

EDIT: wow, I have never seen the score on a comment I posted fluctuate up and down this wildly before. :P

Was going to submit that one, but I figured it was pointless. The flaggers would take it down within minutes. I submitted this one[1] earlier, and it got predictably flagged into oblivion within 10 minutes by the Elon Defense Brigade.

Flagged for moderator attention - not because of your comment but because the date is very pertinent to the article and should be added to the title (please flag mine too).
Yup, comments on the wired article: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46548451
Yep. Absolutely shocking that Cook hasn't already threatened Twitter (or maybe he has and we just don't know?).
They’re simply calculated. They know if they do it Republicans are gonna come down on them hard
Yea, I'd expect the opposite: If anything, they'll add a new "underage nudity" category to the App Store to appease this administration.
It's not shocking at all: threatening Twitter has political implications that banning Tumblr never did, and Cook personally delivered a golden statue to appease the Mad King. I wouldn't expect any action from the app stores.
not just that but you can easily find and see hardcore porn on Twitter, which against Apple and Google's own rules on the app store. But Musk gets a free pass, of course because double standards
