Apple banned crypto currency

Apple has introduced new restrictions in the rules for developers In addition, developers are now prohibited from making a database from the user's contact lists and selling it. The American corporation Apple has banned IOS crypto-currency trading on IOS, reports Bloomberg. In the new edition of Apple's rules for developers, it says that programs and running advertisements in them should not initiate crypto-currency mining.

Also, the company warns that all applications that conduct this practice will be removed from the App Store, and new ones will not be added.

In addition, Apple has tightened the rules for using contacts on iOS. Developers are now prohibited from making a database from user contact lists and selling it, as well as creating user profiles from these data.

Developers are still allowed to request access to use contacts within the application, but they, according to the GDPR, will have to explain why such information is needed, the agency notes.

However, as noted by The Verge, on the data already received from users, Apple can not impose any restrictions, which could expose it to the same danger that Facebook found with the scandal surrounding Cambridge Analytica.

Recently, Apple introduced a new version of the operating system iOS.
