This is rediculous. It's the same as Internet ****. If you don't like it don't look at it. The same applies to apps. If you don't like them don't buy them. End of story.

thanks app store for kiking those biches hores and sluts from the app store.
keep up the good work. -
Hmm well, I agree with apple, but I also agree with you Tick. What they should do is base the app store on the persons Itunes account age, Or even have parental advisory be able to block this conect with a pre set password!,
-
Hmmm, next task is to ban Adult material from all Apple products. Should take a couple thousand emails from folks (ALL TYPED IN CAPITAL LETTERS) making their point. After all "numerous complaints" out of a base of millions of users should change policies. (don't forget those Bible/Koran misquotes while your typing in CAPS)
Enjoy your net-nanny locked mac-book. Big Brother is among us and Apple is his sponsor.
I do however agree that a pop-up asking are you old enough is worse than useless. Proper authentication of the account holders age should be simple to check. However if an adult signs up for the account and gives their 14 year old access (or the phone for good) its on your silly head what they do with it.

I love my iPhone , but I don't want apple
to tell me what I can look at on my phone.
I'm over 18 year old and I should be able
to decide what apps are good for me.
They have ways to protect kids from using
these apps. -

Finally!

No problem..I'll point safari to spankwire.com and watch two girls lick each others asses
-
I don't care one way or the other about the iPorn apps, but I do question the consistency - apps face review and approval, whereas iTunes songs can contain whatever explicit materials they want.
-
I agree that it is wrong to make people pay for their ****.
-
things like this will just give people more reason to go to android
dont under estimate the power of the horny teenager

Number one, iPhones have a block setting in the system settings. Number 2, if you can't trust you're kids to do the right thing then may be they shouldn't have cell phones. Regardless as to whether or not apple sells these apps, you still have girls and boys both "sexting" eachother daily.
Besides that there are numerous free sites that can be visited and viewed from any mobile device with a data connection. -
Personally im glad they are gone. In some areas these apps cluttered the top 50 or whatever list it was ridiculous. Need **** on your iphone? theres safari.
-
to the stupid ass customers who complained about it, if it offends you dont f*****g look at it, let someone else enjoy it.. its funny how apple listens to customers on this circumstance and not when customers complain about other things...smh apple
-
If you don't like them, don't buy them. But, to be fair, they were never really 'decent' **** apps anyway! They were all just pictures of clothed folk, maybe apple should try banning bikinis on beaches too??!!
-
i agree, how many people have been asking for things on the iPhone.....flash etc, but do they listen? er no! but a few people don't like bikinis and apple jump!
-
Also, yet another reason to jailbreak, apple are shooting themselves in the foot!
-
Now that we got that problem out of the way it's time to tackle the next big offensive content, religion.
Apple needs to get rid of any and all religious apps. So many people find this topic offensive that wars have been fought over it.
Please, I implore you Apple, censor this for me.
-
AGREED!!!!!!
-
There could be a special section in the "back" of the store that is lockable so that those apps are not even seen if you don't want to see them, otherwise, spank away my horny friend.
-
Maybe that should change, too..
-
I'm thrilled! You guys can get your **** another way.. I have been debating about which smart phone to buy and I've decided to go with the iPhone now. Probably will get one for everyone in the family. Way to go, Apple!!!
