Government? A ban would happen via the app stores, like all the other mass banned apps.
What about side loading and third party app stores? They would have to patrol peoples devices.
Not to mention its a little concerning that apps can be pulled from the app store for any reason. They bill would allow them to pull any app including ones that protect peoples privacy and freedom.
...... what bill? I literally just said there was no government involvement.
You can side load a social media app all you like, if its pulled from the major stores it has lost its lifeblood. And, uh. Most apps can be pulled for nearly any reason, cause there is no government owned public software store. The company store can kinda do as it likes.
