China attacks Apple for allowing Hong Kong crowdsourced police activity app

Apple's decision to greenlight an app called HKmaps, which is being used by pro-democracy protestors in Hong Kong to crowdsource information about street closures and police presence, is attracting the ire of the Chinese government. An article in Chinese state mouthpiece, China Daily, attacks the iPhone maker for reversing an earlier decision not to allow the app to be listed on the iOS App Store -- claiming the app is "allowing the rioters in Hong Kong to go on violent acts" (via The Guardian). HKmaps uses emoji to denote live police and protest activity around Hong Kong, as reported by users.
