I-Apple iya ekulweni nogwayi we-e. Bangu-42 abantu asebeshonile ngenxa yabo e-USA

I-Apple ikhiphe zonke izinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlobene ne-vaping ethandwayo ku-App Store yayo. Le nkampani inqume ukuthatha lesi sinyathelo ngemuva kokuvela kwemibiko yokushona kwabantu okuhlobene nokusetshenziswa kukagwayi we-e. Umlayezo ekhishwe yi-US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), ngokusho ukuthi i-e-cigarettes isivele inecala lokufa kwe-42 e-United States. Ngaphezu kwalezi zimo ezimbi kakhulu, i-CDC irekhoda ezinye izehlakalo ezingaphezu kwezinkulungwane ezimbili zezifo ezimbi kakhulu zamaphaphu kubantu abasebenzisa i-nicotine noma imikhiqizo eyenziwe nge-cannabis ngogwayi we-e.

Bekunezinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlobene ne-vaping ezingaphezu kwekhulu namashumi ayisishiyagalombili ku-App Store. Nakuba kungekho noyedwa kubo othengise ukuthengiswa okuqondile kokugcwalisa kabusha ugwayi we-elekthronikhi, abanye babo bavumele ababhemayo ukuthi balawule izinga lokushisa noma ukukhanya kogwayi wabo we-e, kuyilapho abanye besebenzela ukubonisa izindaba ezihlobene ne-vaping, noma banikeze imidlalo noma izici zenethiwekhi yokuxhumana nomphakathi.

Isinqumo sokususa zonke lezi zinhlelo zokusebenza ku-App Store asizange neze sivele. I-Apple ibilokhu iphokophele kulesi sinyathelo esibalulekile kusukela ngoJuni, lapho iyeka ukwamukela izicelo ezikhuthaza ukusetshenziswa kukagwayi we-elekthronikhi. Izicelo ezigunyazwe i-Apple esikhathini esidlule, nokho, ziqhubekile nokuhlala ku-App Store futhi zingadawunilodeka kumadivayisi amasha. Esitatimendeni esisemthethweni, i-Apple ithe ifuna i-App Store yayo ibe yindawo ethembekile yamakhasimende - ikakhulukazi abasha - ukulanda izinhlelo zokusebenza, yengeza ngokuthi ihlale ihlola izinhlelo zokusebenza futhi ihlola ubungozi bazo obungaba khona empilweni noma ekunethezekeni kwabasebenzisi.

Lapho i-CDC, kanye ne-American Heart Association, iqinisekisa ukuxhumana phakathi kokubhema ugwayi we-elekthronikhi nesifo samaphaphu, futhi ihlobanisa ukusabalala kwala madivayisi nenkinga yezempilo yomphakathi, inkampani yaseCupertino yanquma, ngamagama ayo, ukushintsha. Imithetho Yesitolo Sohlelo Lokusebenza futhi ukhubaze izinhlelo zokusebenza ezifanele ngokuhle. Ngokuhambisana nemithetho emisha, izinhlelo zokusebenza eziphromotha ukusetshenziswa kukagwayi nemikhiqizo eshisayo, izidakamizwa ezingekho emthethweni noma amanani amaningi otshwala ngeke zisavunyelwa ku-App Store.

Umnyakazo ka-Apple unconywe ngokufanelekile yi-American Heart Association, umqondisi wayo uNancy Brown athi uthemba ukuthi nabanye bazolandela okufanayo futhi bahlanganyele ekusakazeni umlayezo mayelana nokulutha kwe-nicotine okungabangelwa ugwayi we-e.
