More from WSJ on the story:
Elon Musk said Wednesday he met with Apple Inc. Chief Executive Tim Cook at Apple’s headquarters, just days after the new Twitter Inc. boss launched attacks on the company’s App Store and advertising.
…
Mr. Musk on Monday accused Apple of stanching free speech and claiming that the tech giant had threatened to kick the Twitter app off the iPhone.
Apple didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
…
Apple is one of Twitter’s biggest advertisers and controls access to its iPhone and its more than 1 billion users. Mr. Musk has said Apple threatened to take Twitter’s app off the App Store, the digital marketplace where iPhone users download third-party software.
Meanwhile, Mr. Musk’s aggressive push back against Apple threatens to pull the iPhone-maker further in the crosshairs of Republican lawmakers nervous about the power Silicon Valley holds. Mr. Musk has framed his fight with Apple as one against Big Tech squashing freedom of speech.
…
About 64% of Twitter users in the U.S. use Apple’s mobile operating system for iPhone or iPad compared with 36% using Alphabet Inc.’s Android, according to Sensor Tower data.
