Meaning one’s that didn’t agree with Russia’s official stance, or ones claiming to be independent but still funded by Russia? Those would be very different things.
if only there would be some way to find out, like reading the article…
U.S. technology giant Apple has reportedly removed or hidden several Russian-language podcasts produced by independent journalists.
The news outlet Mediazona reported on November 14 that new episodes from the online radio station Ekho Moskvy and investigative outlet The Insider were no longer accessible inside Russia. A BBC Russian Service podcast also appeared to be affected.

So which ones are those two? I’m not familiar with them.
these three. are you really not familiar with any of the three media mentioned there? or are you pretending to be dumb in order to troll?
also, there is still whole rest of the article for you to read.

I’m familiar with the BBC, but I don’t know about their Russian service. Is it the same coverage, or an independent branch? I’ve seen articles by the investigator I think, but same thing, is this their Russian branch? I’ve never heard of the first one.
Yeah, wtf? I thought they were sanctioned to the extent that it made it so most US/EU companies literally couldn’t continue doing business with Russia?

TL:DR: Apple operates in Russia and removes anti-war based relatively good guy non-state-funded anti-Putin podcasts that Russian government doesn’t like within Russia. Afaik.
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) is an American government-funded international media organization that broadcasts and reports news, information, and analyses to Eastern Europe
During the Cold War, RFE was primarily aimed at broadcasting to Soviet satellite states, including the Baltic states, and RL targeted the Soviet Union itself. RFE was founded by the National Committee for a Free Europe as an anti-communist propaganda[8] source in 1949, while RL was founded two years later.
Guys you don’t understand this is how indipendent journalism is done
Do we have something like this for Asia as well? Like you never know they might run out of our garbage propaganda… Oh yes we do.
Edit: this stuff is worse than like CGTN or Sputnik, because at least those don’t try to hide behind “InDePeNdEnT jOuRnAliSm” when they are financed by the goverment that rivals the area they serve.

Sadly “people” regularly post overt imperial propaganda on Lemmy without much pushback.

The first one. Can look up the name in the article to confirm…though “independent” implies not funded by the state, right?
Apple is continuing to operate in Russia and, in the process, are enforcing their censorship.
Fuck Apple for not exiting Russia but the title makes it sound like they removed those globally.
Yes, the actual news is the opposite of what the title made me think

The imperial narrative is strong here.
