本期節(jié)目介紹：

Apple Store下架了紅色iPad游戲《保衛(wèi)釣魚島》。在這款游戲中，玩家可以使用各種武器和障礙物來保衛(wèi)中國在爭議島嶼釣魚島的軍事地位。日本也聲稱對釣魚島擁有主權(quán)，在日本，釣魚島被稱為尖閣列島。分析師認為，游戲下架的最可能原因是違反了蘋果的服務(wù)條款。蘋果的服務(wù)條款明確規(guī)定，游戲中不得以特定種族、文化、政府、企業(yè)或其他任何實體為目標進行攻擊。盡管沒有官方回應(yīng)，但蘋果可能不希望自己的市場因為兩國爭端而陷入兩難境地。

Apple has removed a video game from its App Store over its controversial theme, according to a report.

Dubbed Defend the Diaoyu Islands, the game allowed players to defend the islands against soldiers carrying Japanese flags and dressed as ninjas (忍者) and sumo wrestlers (相撲).

The game, which was developed by China-based Shenzhen ZQ Game Network Co., highlights the real-world political upheaval that's occurring in Asia over the Diaoyu Islands.

Although Apple has not said why it pulled the game from its store, the company may not want its marketplace to get caught up in a bitter dispute between the two countries.
