Re: Why is Apple against porn
 
Apple being against porn is possibly the most polarizing issue I have with them.

Mind you, I don't even care for porn. I care about my ability to choose what I can and cannot do.

If Jobs wanted to do something worth my time, solve the problem of fraudulent websites/spoofing.

And if Nokia were smart, they'd drop "Comes with Music" and start advertising "Comes with Porn".

1 Billion phones sold in a week. I almost guarantee it.

@gerbick: are you jonesing for porn apps n games dude? cause... that's the only block that matters, right? The browsers (safari + 3rd party) and all the build in media player have no porn-blocks on them...

Naw, not really. I just found it odd that Apple has chosen that as a front to battle.

I guess if anybody is going to get ****ed, it's gonna be by Jobs.

lol so true..

I wonder if adult content can make a 'boom' on mobile like it did on vhs/dvd/early interwebs. Maybe when the adult 'accessories' are all out in full force..

You guys realise you've revived a thread because some guy asked for porn websites, right?

Give it a rest already.

This is what happens when there's no exciting development...

Ps: it's been 'dead' again for nearly 24hrs before you woke us back up....

Bah. There should be some Maemo app for porn sites.

I dunno. Like a browser maybe?

They're not against it, it's just their 'brand/image' and teenagers are prolly also a part of their marketshare. You can still visit any porn sites like pornhub, theporndude, ePorner,... on an apple device.

Reviving an insignificant five-year-old thread? :eek:
