As far as I know it is possible for publishers to limit the regions in the appstore ... but sideloading and forks like #mollyim should not be impacted. Not sure if signal will use barriers in the app/server itself.

Maybe force the Appstores to take the apps down for the region or on the end ... make it a crime to use it.
I wonder if they thought about business communications like remote teams or different branches using e2ee-services?

I'm more team anti-censorship, so no idea if/how they could block this. 😊
