Google Barring Trump Truth Social from Play Store Due to 'Insufficient Content Moderation'

Last week, Truth Social CEO Devin Nunes claimed that it was “up to Google” to approve the App for download on the Play Store platform, claiming in a statement to Just the News’ John Solomon: “we’re waiting on them to approve us, and I don’t know what’s taking so long.”
“They could approve it tomorrow and it would be live for all the people who have now pre-ordered,” Nunes continued, adding: “We have built this from the ground up, brick-by-brick, so that we can’t be canceled. But the two companies that we have to work with specifically for the apps, which is the Google Play Store and Apple to be in their app store – everyone is beholden to them.”Not so fast, says Google – who told Axios that the app hasn’t been approved for distribution due to “insufficient content moderation.”
“On Aug. 19, we notified Truth Social of several violations of standard policies in their current app submission and reiterated that having effective systems for moderating user-generated content is a condition of our terms of service for any app to go live on Google Play,” a spokesperson said, adding “Last week Truth Social wrote back acknowledging our feedback and saying that they are working on addressing these issues.”
