Apple is making a huge financial mistake here. Sex sells. If people can't get nudity on their iPhones, they will buy different phones. Simple as that!

They are small minded insecure people who feel the only way they can be be of value is to force their self serving views on everyone else.

There's a difference between something that can be used for porn but ALSO HAS OTHER USES vs something that has no other purpose.

Someone argued that since Safari can be used to download porn that it's not different than this app. Safari has endless other uses while this app has none.

The argument that Apple has a 'nudity' tag is equally disingenuous. There's a difference between a movie which could have redeeming social value but also has brief moments of nudity (see Doc Hollywood, for example) and an app which has no other purpose.

Again, the argument about violence is also invalid. There's a difference between a game which has some value (not to me, but to game players) and which happens to contain lots of blood and an application which is nothing but pictures of crime scenes (which would not be appropriate).

Apple is saying that they can't control any exposure to nudity, but that they're not going to encourage things which have no other purpose. I applaud their decision.

ex ped; Well said.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is about Apple pulling something that isn't really all that critical and trying to keep its image clean or at least trying to avoid flak from those purist activist groups. I enjoy nudity as much or maybe more than the next guy, but as an Apple investor I don't want anything to cause problems and drive down the share price.
