(CNN) -- An app that helps users find other apps for free has been banned from Apple's mobile store in a move some say heralds a new round of blacklisting for content the company doesn't like.
AppGratis,
which partners with app developers as a sort of clearinghouse to help
them get noticed, was first informed Friday that it was being pulled,
according to CEO Simon Dawlat. The app disappeared from the App Store on
Sunday. more after the cut...
Dawlat said he'd been on a
plane to Brazil and arrived to discover more than 75 missed phone calls
and "a seemingly unlimited flow" of text messages.
"I immediately thought
that someone in my family had passed away during my flight and couldn't
touch my phone for a few minutes," Dawlat wrote in a blog post. "Scared. Paralyzed. Trying to imagine what the terrible news could be."
