Apple behind removal of Hottest Girls iPhone app after all
If there's one thing we can decisively say about iPhone users -- and everyone else, for that matter -- it's that they shouldn't see naked people, even if they want to. Ever. Apple agrees, and it turns out that they were responsible for the removal of the Hottest Girls app after all, contrary to a statement by its developer that the app had tapped out his server which supposedly forced him to ask Apple to pull it while he ramped up capacity. Apple released a statement today confirming this, but here's where it gets interesting: the company says that "the developer of this application added inappropriate content directly from their server after the application had been approved and distributed" -- in other words, the guy pulled a bait-and-switch on Apple by serving different content to his app after it had been approved using more PG-rated content. Look, we're all for filling our iPhones with gigabytes upon gigabytes of stuff that would make us especially anxious to trigger the Remote Wipe feature if we were to misplace it, but we've got to admit -- the dude went about it the wrong way here, Apple caught him, the world keeps turning. Come on, it's not like you don't have thousands of naughty pics in a folder cleverly named "recipes" that you can just sync anyway.



















So how come Apple hasn't removed Safari yet?
THIS IS AMERICA LAND OF FREE APPLICATIONS!
I'm i doing it right? in Europe have freedom of porn everywhere
And safari is useless for porn btw all porn websites use flash for there porn videos lol
Dr House obviously hasn't heard of mobile pornhub.
I do but i don't want my options to be "limited" since my favorite websites use flash
Plus i love to watch porn not "pixels" with the lower quality videos
HQ or BUST
haha... BUST.. haha
All of Kink.com's content is available in "iPod" format, which is great for watching on the go! ;)
You'd probably want to load it first though, as downloading could take a while, heh.

Hehe. Taylor, you said "load"!
Dr House - yes europe is more into nuditiy but america is unfortunately a stuck up christian nation but violence is ok in games, tv and shows. Makes no sense to me. The crime rate in amsterdam is not worse than the usa and they legalize pot and hookers. sometimes i wish i lived in europe.
So go live there.
"sometimes i wish i lived in europe."
Only sometimes? I'd have ran away from the US and A ages ago!
Funny, I thought all iPhone users were gay; why would they want to see naked women?
Must be fashion magazine stuff or something... ;-)
Fashion= clothing
Naked= without clothing
One of us is confused.
Also, I'm definitely appreciating the semicolon usage. LOL
Hmm...well...
Can't say I'm surprised
Two minutes in the App Store is better than one minute in the App Store, baby...
You say you want more?
Well,
I can't say I'm surprised.
Makes me very happy to use a platform that allows me to engage in the quaint concept of being able to have access to any app I want from wherever I want.
You just got cock-blocked by Apple.
but i am quite sleepy...
Apple Fanboys are like battered women! They keep taking it over and over and over again while providing endless amounts of excuses for the black eyes (1) C/P, MMS, A2DP took too long. (2) Why no flash and front facing camera, NOW? (3) $50 Samsung’s work on at&t in places that “a certain phone” don’t. (4) The excuse for lack of blueray support is a joke! (5) “A certain phone” will NEVER support flash! Could continue but have to get back to work... Now flame on!
Blu-ray? Seriously? You're just pulling it out of your ass now
http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/14/steve-jobs-calls-blu-ray-a-bag-of-hurt/
Sill rabbit! You must be new round here ;^)...
Going from a purely "laptop" point of view:
What the hell is the point of blu-ray? Even on a 17" notebook you still can't fully appreciate the quality blu-ray provides.
DVDs still look fantastic on a good screen at this size, hell they still look fantastic on a 42" 1080p TV.
I keep mine in my "Adobe" folder...who would think to look there?
A wildcard search for images from the root of the drive would.
No one's ever gonna think to look in my "pr0n stash" folder.
I keep mine in a folder called "New Folder." Oh, I mean, I don't have anything in that folder at all..... It was created on an accident -- you know how Windows can be!
I keep mine on a drive called "Porn"!
-Taylor
"Stuff" Folder FTW!
you just nest the folders like 20 times! noone is gonna keep clicking and clicking when the folders have name like "2045fh" and "GTR1"! lol.
IF I were to do that...
~/Private/other
encrypted..
mine are under /Movies/Pr0n... but my home brew is under /GarbageFiles... hot...
Desktop -> "definitely no furry porn here" -> "honestly" -> "ok I lied" -> "drawings" and "photos"
(yes, I'm a furry)
Holy shit! Mr. 14 has apparently infiltrated my computer and found my encrypted secret pron/naked ex folder! How could he have ever guessed the password of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Folder called porn ofcause. Whats the point of having quality porn if you hide it from those you'd wish to cockfight with?
"P" FTW!
I keep my porn collection in a password protected dmg.
Muahahaha
Well why do you think they call me Mr. 14?
I love porn, but I don't want it in the app store, it makes the store seem cheap and like they will take any crap app. I'm still mad about the fart apps.
I was just about to mention the fart apps
Fart apps are fine - it's the queefing apps that must be banned.
"I love porn..."
I do so appreciate honesty in strangers.
Does no one recall when Apple originally released the SDK that one of the types of apps they would not allow was porn??
But it was their fault that the app was approved in the first place.
Seriously... if you're the type of person that MUST have port in your frickin cell phone, there's something wrong with you. Grow the hell up.
All hail Lord Jobs! That is awesome, iFanboi users are at the mercy of Apple's decisions....hahahahaha. "Hold on, you wanna be free to use YOUR phone as you please?! NO WAY! You must abide by what we want!, thanks for the $200 by the way...sucker!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....maybe next they'll censor words in your browser or bleep out words in your songs.
Guys if you really want to watch porn on your iphone(streaming video) simply jailbreak then go to cydia and install iStream or iStreamy. Its out of Jobs jurisdiction and its free.
Just google "iPhone porn" from your phone. Seriously, no shortage of tits....just not native.
@BKM72 - So.. only foreign tits.. I guess that's okay. How does Google know if the women are native to where you live? Or are there just not Native American tits?
(and for those who don't understand a joke, I understand he meant native iPhone app)
Rules? What rules?
So, just to be clear, why is it a surprise that Apple is censoring content in the App Store? Everyone knew the rules, the dev broke them, and as a result, got pulled. Don't like it? Don't buy an iPhone.
Except there's a distinction and section now for apps that contain nudity or sexual content for users 17+. Why even have that category if boobies are suddenly the root of all evil according to your company?
