Apple has reportedly come under scrutiny from members of Congress regarding two sensitive issues: applications that monitor Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities, and political contributions tied to Donald Trump.
The inquiry brings renewed attention to Apple's governance of the App Store, specifically how it handles and reviews software available to iPhone users. Lawmakers are examining the company's policies and decisions regarding tools designed to alert the public about federal law enforcement operations.
Alongside App Store moderation practices, congressional interest also reportedly involves political donations connected to the former president, placing the company in the middle of ongoing political debates in Washington.
