Apple, Google issue ‘warning’ to Amazon over Kindle App

Apple and Alphabet-owned Google have warned Amazon after the companies learnt that sexually explicit photographs can be accessed by children on the popular Kindle app. The companies called on Amazon to strengthen its content moderation.

“We’ve shared these concerns with the developer and are working with them to ensure their app is compliant with our guidelines,” a Reuters report cited Apple as saying.

Google, on the other hand, said that “Google Play does not allow apps that contain or promote sexual content and we’ve been in contact with the developer on this issue.”
