US President Donald Trump's China tariffs to make Apple Watch, AirPods, Macs more expensive: AppleSep 8 (AZINS) US President Donald Trump's proposed USD 2 billion tariff on China-made products will surge the prices of Apple products, the iPhone maker has claimed. Apple, which manufactures most of its products in China, says that the 25 percent increase in import tax will affect a lot of other Apple products such as the AirPods, HomePod, and Apple Watch, Cnet reported.

The list of products and components that Apple claims will become expensive also includes Mac Mini, Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, Apple Pencil, Apple computer parts, printed circuit boards, electrical connectors, and so on.

Apple has raised its concerns through a letter to the Trump administration. The company said that the increased tariffs will show up as a tax on US consumers. Apple also claims that the proposed tariff will be worse for the US than China. It has asked the government to reconsider its decisions.

Apple recently said that it had banned from its App Store the Infowars app belonging to popular U.S. conspiracy theorist Alex Jones after finding that it had violated the company's rules against "objectionable content".

The move makes Apple the latest tech company or social media platform to take action against Jones, a deeply controversial right-wing radio talk-show host who has suggested that the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax, among other sensational claims. Apple said the guidelines Jones violated bar "defamatory, discriminatory, or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, national/ethnic origin, or other targeted groups, particularly if the app is likely to humiliate, intimidate, or place a targeted individual or group in harm's way."

Representatives for Jones could not immediately be reached for comment by Reuters on Friday evening. On Thursday, Twitter Inc permanently banned Jones and his website from its platform and Periscope, saying in a tweet that the accounts had violated its behavior policies.
