Censorship on Apple IPhones

[b0und]

I could not believe this when I read it:

Apple bans most (but not all) sexy apps – SciTechBlog - CNN.com Blogs

I have spoken with Apple, and the following are the new rules:

1. No images of women in bikinis (Ice skating tights are not OK either)

2. No images of men in bikinis! (I didn’t ask about Ice Skating tights for men)

3. No skin (he seriously said this) (I asked if a Burqa was OK, and the Apple guy got angry)

4. No silhouettes that indicate that Wobble can be used for wobbling boobs (yes – I am serious, we have to remove the silhouette in this pic)

5. No sexual connotations or innuendo: boobs, babes, booty, sex – all banned

6. Nothing that can be sexually arousing!! (I doubt many people could get aroused with the pic above but those puritanical guys at Apple must get off on pretty mundane things to find Wobble "overtly sexual!")

7. No apps will be approved that in any way imply sexual content (not sure how Playboy is still in the store, but …)

Apple are worse than the Chinese government, this is the most ridiculous censorship list I have seen. I don't mean to bash Apple, if they make good products all the power to them, but this is retarded!

That is retarded. The good news is that since they are a private company, we can vote with our dollars too.

I think it's retarded that they would do that but it won't make me leave. I don't have any of those apps on my phone anyways and the ones that I did were crap....I've got the internet where I can find all the porn I want. Thank god I'm not in China!
