Tell Google and Apple: Stand with Saudi women, don’t facilitate the Saudi Guardianship system | CODEPINK

Tell Google and Apple: Stand with Saudi women, don’t facilitate the Saudi Guardianship system | CODEPINK

 

 

Join our ally CODEPINK: Women For Peace in calling on Google and Apple to remove apps that let Saudi men track women!

"The ultimate stalking tool for Saudi men:
Google and Apple are offering an app in Saudi Arabia to assist men
track the whereabouts of their wives, daughters, nieces, and employees.
The app, called Absher, was created by the Saudi National Information
Center, which is a project of the Saudi Ministry of Interior for the
country’s guardianship system that requires women to get permission
from a husband, brother, uncle or other male guardian to engage in such
basic things as obtaining a passport, traveling, getting married or
divorced, and obtaining medical treatment."
