TorrentFreak reports that Apple has prohibited the distribution of the BitTorrent downloading app, iTorrent, via the EU's third-party app market, AltStore Pal. Although apps like iTorrent have been accessible for download on AltStore Pal since July of last year, they have consistently been excluded from Apple's official App Store. Recently, users have encountered difficulties in downloading iTorrent, and the app's developer has confirmed that Apple has revoked its third-party distribution permissions. Apple has not disclosed the specific reasons behind this action, merely noting that it is under investigation. In the absence of detailed information from Apple, it remains uncertain whether the revocation of distribution rights is tied to known security threats or fraud concerns. The AltStore Pal platform has reached out to Apple for further clarification but has yet to receive specific warnings regarding the ban. Notably, Apple has not implemented a blanket ban on BitTorrent downloading apps at this time.
