Apple is causing a stir in the iPhone community by removing over 5000 apps from the app store due to what they deem as inappropriate content. Apple has long been known for being protective over what gets onto the app store, but never before have they rejected or removed so many apps at once. This recent course of action has caused Apple to receive a great deal of criticism from iPhone users, app developers, and the media.

The official reason of Apple banning the apps is due to what they deem

2. No images of men in bikinis

6. Nothing that can be sexually arousing


These two just cancel each other out.

When the government tells business owners how to run their business, then we'll have a socialist police state IMHO. That's happening already.
Just a piece of that pie :roll:

BTW...Apple rules! :lol8:

As a fanboi I'm sure you didn't mind when Apple insert the anal probe.... but I have to ask.... wasn't it a little uncomfortable when they sucked out half your brains?

The founder of E-harmony was sued and FORCED to offer gays and lesbians the same services he offers to straights. Where will it end?

:roflol: Oh my hell.

Well, I guess this really says something about eharmony. The gay man knew that it was the ABSOLUTE BEST dating site and he couldn't possibly go any other direction except for eHarmony.... so that's why his right to search for a partner was truly impeded upon.

...rather than just going to "Gay Chubby Dating.com"

The fair statement though, is I'm not sure if we can say the government sponsored that or not, I guess it comes down to the principle of "people suing people", but I don't know.

apple appears to have created (though not yet in use) an 'explicit' section in the app store

So sales numbers are a valid measurement for determining a superior OS? Funny stuff coming from a Mac guy.
