Apple censors apps on App store
Apple will pull out some applications from its App store if they are found to have overtly sexual content.
The electronics company behind the iPod and the recent buzz maker, iPad. began removing iPhone and iPod touch, applications from its online App store, those being removed are applications which are sexual and offensive in nature.
These includes applications which feature bikini models, and applications where the objective is, shall we say, activities that may involve increasing the world’s population.
“If we find these apps contain inappropriate material, we remove them and request the developer make any necessary changes in order to be distributed by Apple,” according to a statement from the company.
This move may be met with controversy as the creators claimed the power to decide what or what not to place on people’s iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone.
Some people are saying that it’s their product anyways and Apple should always have the final say on what should or shouldn’t their products have, either application developers comply to the standards of the App store or they should just find another venue to market their applications.
