Google refuses to remove Sharia woman-tracking app

ARTICLE INITIALLY FROM JIHADWATCH.ORG:

But what do you think would happen if I tried to put a Jihad Watch app in the Google Play Store? Right. The social media giants are becoming Sharia-compliant with alacrity. This is akin to Twitter’s sending out of Sharia blasphemy warnings from Pakistan, and Facebook’s assuring the government of Pakistan that it would remove material critical of Islam.

“Google refuses to remove controversial ‘woman tracking’ app in Saudi Arabia, Apple has…,” Techspot, March 3, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Absher is an app available via Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. The app has many features such as paying parking fines, registering a birth, or renewing a driving license. But one feature has led to an outcry from human rights campaigners – the ability for men to track and either permit or deny travelling plans made by women.

On February 21, 14 representatives from Congress wrote to both Google and Apple demanding removal of the app, alleging that “women fleeing persecution in Saudi Arabia had to defeat this application to leave the country and seek asylum.” The letter gave a deadline of February 28 to respond.

According to Business Insider, Google has now confirmed to Rep. Jackie Speier that they will not be removing the app from their Play Store, while Apple have yet to answer beyond stating that they are ‘investigating’. Google said that the app “does not violate any agreements and can therefore remain on the Google Play store.”
