- When Grok/X very publicly rolled out a feature allowing users to undress images of women and children, many expected it would be pulled from app stores due to clear violations of Apple and Google policy. Yet no action was taken.
- TTP’s discovery of apps tied to sanctioned entities was another example of Apple and Google's failure to enforce their own policies. When informed, they removed many of the apps, but offered no explanation for their longstanding presence in the stores.
