Kwiinyanga ezidlulileyo sibona indlela abafana abavela eCupertino abanengxaki ngayo ngomnye wemithombo yabo ephambili yengeniso: Ivenkile yosetyenziso.

Kodwa i-Apple ayijonganga neengxaki ezikude nemida yayo kuphela, kodwa kufuneka ithobele iimfuno zikarhulumente wayo. NgokweNew York Times, iApple isusa kwiVenkile yeApple Inani elikhulu lezicelo ezivela kubaphuhlisi baseIran ngokuhambelana neemfuno zesohlwayo kurhulumente waseMelika.
I-Apple ayiboneleli ngayo nayiphi na imveliso yayo e-Iran. Akukho Sitolo seApple, kodwa kweli lizwe kukho abasebenzisi abazizigidi ze-iPhone, abafumene izixhobo zabo eDubai okanye eHong Kong, ukusuka apho baneeakhawunti zabo zokufaka usetyenziso kwi-iPhone. Inani elikhulu labaphuhlisi abenza izicelo eIran, banikela okufanayo nakwezinye iiVenkile zeApple, kodwa kubonakala ngathi ayisosizathu saneleyo sokuba iApple isihloniphe isicelo.
Njengoko sifunda kwiThe New York Times, izicelo zokuhanjiswa kokutya, ukuthengiswa kwemveliso, iinkonzo kunye nasiphi na isicelo esenziwe ngumqambi waseIran siye sanyamalala kuzo zonke iiVenkile zeApp. Bonke abaphuhlisi abachaphazelekayo kwesi sigqibo bafumene i-imeyile, apho baziswa ngayo ukurhoxiswa kwesicelo sayo ngenxa yezohlwayo zikarhulumente waseMelika elizweni.
Isithethi senkampani isiqinisekisile eso sigqibo, kodwa unqabile ukuphawula ngalo mbandela. Yonke le nto yaqala ngoJanuwari, xa iApple yaqala ukususa iiVenkile zeVenkile. NgoFebruwari, iApple yasusa zonke iindlela zokuhlawula ezikhoyo kwizicelo ezazisekhona. Isohlwayo esitsha sikarhulumente wase-US e-Iran sinxulumene nezigqibo zamva nje ezenziwe nguMongameli uDonald Trump kwezi nyanga zidlulileyo.
