But what do you think would happen if I tried to put a Jihad Watch app in the Google Play Store? Right. The social media giants are becoming Sharia-compliant with alacrity. This is akin to Twitter’s sending out of Sharia blasphemy warnings from Pakistan, and Facebook’s assuring the government of Pakistan that it would remove material critical of Islam.
“Google refuses to remove controversial ‘woman tracking’ app in Saudi Arabia, Apple has…,” Techspot, March 3, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Absher is an app available via Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. The app has many features such as paying parking fines, registering a birth, or renewing a driving license. But one feature has led to an outcry from human rights campaigners – the ability for men to track and either permit or deny travelling plans made by women.
On February 21, 14 representatives from Congress wrote to both Google and Apple demanding removal of the app, alleging that “women fleeing persecution in Saudi Arabia had to defeat this application to leave the country and seek asylum.” The letter gave a deadline of February 28 to respond.
According to Business Insider, Google has now confirmed to Rep. Jackie Speier that they will not be removing the app from their Play Store, while Apple have yet to answer beyond stating that they are ‘investigating’. Google said that the app “does not violate any agreements and can therefore remain on the Google Play store.”

Any company that does business in the US should not be allowed to build or use these types of apps.
smoris says
How about any business that is heavily subsidized by US taxpayers not be allowed to have this app? Google receives massive subsidies from the US federal government. This is a good reason to stop subsidizing these companies. Unless our government controls a company it should not put tax dollars into it. Period.
Now – dare I post this? What the heck. I will.
Jean Terry says
How outrageous. We are trapped by Google and their control.

Absher – Abs(control of) Her.

Google’s original motto was “DON’T BE EVIL”. How soon they have forgotten. Google’s cooperation with MISOGYNY and TOTALITARIAN DICTATORSHIPS is EVIL.
If you don’t think cooperating with Islam is ‘EVIL’, please read following what Islam’s primary SOURCE TEXTS say about hunting apostates.
The Koran makes all Muslims BOUNTY HUNTERS to be rewarded with eternal erections and sex with slaves in the Islamic paradise.
Mohammed commands the killing of apostates, and promises eternal rewards for doing so:
When I relate to you the words of Mohammed, by Allah, I would rather die than bear false witness to his teachings. However, if I should say something unrelated to the prophet, then it might very well be a lie so that I might deceive my enemy. Without question, I heard Mohammed say, “In the final days before Redemption there will emerge groups of foolish youths who will say all the right things but their faith will go no further than their mouths and will flee from their religion like an arrow. So, kill the apostates wherever you find them, because whoever does so will be rewarded on Judgment Day.” -Sahih Bukhari 9,84,64

No to freedom of speech(Free Alex Jones!) but yes to more Big(and small) Tech tracking of private citizens.
That is what all people want. Really.

This is terrifying, considering how much of this leads to wife beating and even “Honor Killing”.
But then, no support for the Counter Jihad from Google:

That *is* funny.
But not everyone misuses social media. Robert Spencer is on both Facebook and Twitter.
WPM says
Its how Moslem men keep track of there slaves, wives ,women of the right hand ect. Modern day ball and chains ,limiting the amount time women can travel ,, limiting the distance they can be from their husbands and “keepers”. Limiting how many times they can journey, next on line a collar the women can wear on their necks that will give then a electric zap applied by a phone app you can get in the google play store if they stray out of stated boundaries set by their husbands or fathers .
No Muzzies Here says
How quickly and eagerly they rush to become Sharia-compliant. One might think that Google is full of glee over the forthcoming Islamization of Western countries.
Leon Degney says
As sad as your comment sounds I do see some truth rattling around there. What their end game is is difficult to fathom. When they have assisted in the Western and European countries being overrun by backward technophobes how do these platforms hope to continue? The mind boggles.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
Through patent cross-licensing between Google and Amazon, this bint-tracking app can be combined with a remotely operated neck-worn disincentivizer similar to

Indiana Tom says
But one feature – the ability for men to track and either permit or deny travelling plans made by women. I think this would be a great app for the husbands of the pink pussy hats. Bill would love this for Hillary. Need to sell this in USA ASAP! The gift that keeps on giving. Next a dog collar and leash for the little woman!

And MeWe in place of the abysmal Facebook.
Mel says
This makes me want to vomit. The evil perpetrated by this ideology and the western idiots that go along with it is sickening. I can’t wrap my head around the blatant oppression of women that goes unopposed by these big tech companies. Yet they scream if someone says something mean on the internet. Utterly disgusting!
Leon Degney says
The something said doesn’t have to be “mean” to have one banned Mel.
Anjuli Pandavar says
It’s just business.
Leon Degney says
Is that similar to “I was just following orders”?
Anjuli Pandavar says
Almost, I’d say. In some instances, not following orders can get you killed. No one should arrogate to themselves the right to challenge the decisions people make under such conditions. But a business doesn’t *have* to make that sale, especially if they can show themselves quite willing to forego a lucrative product line in favour of a hypothetical future advantage. Google cannot dump its female-tagging software, but Amazon can pull “Muhammad’s Qur’an”. In the first case money speaks, in the second money shouts.
tninfidel says
The Religion of Peace has an app on Play Store. Too bad Jihad Watch doesn’t. Just installed it on my phone. Wonder how long until Google removes it?
David Stephenson says
If it was 1935. Goolag would be vying for the contract to tag people as Jewish and help facilitate the pogrom.
Someone is always willing to build the crematoriums and do the dirty work for a buck.

I downloaded what I thought was Absher and its some Saudi government app. I got bored. I gave up. I’m playing games with petrol and matches now…

– As just ONE of the ‘End-Time’ WARNINGS is written in Luke 21:34-36 [AV]:
AND take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting,
AND drunkenness,
AND cares of this life,
AND so THAT DAY come upon you unawares.
For as a snare shall IT come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
WATCH YE THEREFORE,
AND PRAY ALWAYS, THAT YE MAY BE ACCOUNTED WORTHY to escape all these things that shall come to pass,
AND TO STAND BEFORE THE SON OF MAN.
