Apple's AC Adapter Recall Affects Russian Customers

Apple has recalled a number of AC power adapters for Macs and iPads sold outside the United States due to the risk of breakage and electric shock, the U.S. tech giant reported on its website.

The recall applies to two-pronged wall plug adapters sold with Macs and the 10-watt adapters shipped with iPads between 2003 and 2015, in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Europe, New Zealand, and South Korea. The recall also applies to Apple's World Travel Adapter Kit.

Apple is directing its customers to this site for additional information regarding the recall.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
