Tripadvisor app blocked in China along with more than 100 others

Tripadvisor's app shown on a smartphone in Germany in July.
Hong Kong (CNN Business)China says it has pulled Tripadvisor (TRIP) from mobile app stores in the country as the government embarks on a fresh bid to "clean up" the internet.
In a statement Tuesday, the Cyberspace Administration of China said it had removed 105 apps it considered to be "illegal," including that of the US travel giant.
Most of the platforms belonged to local Chinese firms, and it was not immediately clear why Tripadvisor — which features reviews of hotels and holiday destinations — was caught up in the crackdown. The Massachusetts-based company said in a statement that it was "not in a position to comment at this time."
