Apple Removes New York Times Apps from iTunes Store in China
Something that might be comparably shocking is the extent to which Chinese investors and government representatives influence the content of Hollywood movies that depict or refer to China. There were some news reports about this in the last couple of years; I sat next to a Hollywood studio executive on a flight last month and (rather than arguing about copyright policy) commiserated about this issue. He confirmed that there are organized systems in place with representatives sent to monitor film content to ensure Chinese market access and avoid upsetting investors.This has been reported quite a bit for several years; see, e.g.,http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2015/05/18/407619652/h...
