Yay for adolescent boys with their parents credit cards!
QUOTE Adolescent boys with access to their parent’s credit cards may have reason to celebrate today. Apple has finally allowed pornography, or at least nudity, into the iTunes App Store. An image from the ‘Hottest Girls’ application for sale in the iTunes App Store. Hottest Girls has the distinguished privilege of being the first application approved for sale in the iTunes App Store that contains nudity. The Hottest Girls app is not new, but as of today, photos of topless women join the application’s “2200+ sexy bikini babes and lingerie models.” Of course, porn has long been accessible on the iPhone through its Internet browser, but this marks the first time Apple has sanctioned images of naked women for the popular device. The change in Apple’s porn policy is likely a result of expanded parental controls in the new iPhone 3.0 OS software. Age restrictions can now be set to prevent mature downloads from the App Store. According to a Gizmodo article that seemed oddly excited by this news: This is not just an application that downloads softcore content from the Web, bypassing Apple’s censorship. There is no censorship here, as this is truly an Apple approved app “rated 17+” for “frequent/intense sexual content or nudity” and “frequent/intense mature/suggestive theme.” The editors at Wired.com took the Hottest Girls app for a test drive and were underwhelmed. “The application itself is terrible,” writes Wired’s tester, “but you can be sure that there will be more, and better, very soon.” Personally, I couldn’t care less about the Hottest Girls app, but I am curious to see if pornography will lead to an explosion of lucrative app sales for Apple. Porn, and the many dollars it generates, has been a driving force for new technology for decades. How do you feel about Apple’s decision to allow nudity into the app store? And what, if anything, will this do for the iPhone? This could be bad... |

I couldn't care less really. It doesn't effect me, and anybody who might be interested in 'that sort of thing' won't be swayed by a bit of nudity that they have to pay for, and that their parents know about.

Thats pretty funny although irrelevant seeing as Itouch and Iphones have internet and a quicktime player. If you want porn on any medium its not really hard.

Kinda saw that coming really... Family groups would have gone nuts anyway... As it turns out the Dev took it offline because the demand was so high.... This post has been edited by Natt39: Jun 25 2009, 06:18 PM |

Tell me when something really surprising happens. As said earlier, why buy when there's the internet? |
