Jon Stewart has returned to host The Daily Show on Comedy Central after his stint at Apple TV+.

While at Apple TV+, Stewart faced restrictions on discussing certain topics, including Israel, artificial intelligence, and was barred from interviewing FTC chair Linda Khan.

These restrictions highlight Apple's potential to exert control over speech on its platform, coinciding with an antitrust suit against the company.

Reporter Andy Meek, with extensive industry experience, questions Apple TV+'s relevance in comparison to competitors like Netflix.

Apple's control over content topics comes ahead of a significant AI announcement at the Worldwide Developers Conference amidst US lawmakers' concerns over foreign influence and Apple's decision-making.

Apple has not commented on the issue following a request for a statement.
