The move limits access to one of the few remaining channels for readers in mainland China to read The Times without resorting to special software.

Mr. Sainz declined to comment on what local regulations the Times apps were said to have violated, who had contacted Apple and when, and whether a court order or other legal document had been presented.

There is not just the obvious censorship, but this also raises another question: which laws has a globally active company to respect?
