For all those who are wondering, the sad news from Cupertino is official, or as official as things can get before they are changed. Apple has banned all apps with sexual innuendo. From this day forward, until Emperor Jobs decides otherwise, the App Store will not include any apps featuring scantly clad women, including bikinis and under garments. Of course, nudity was never allowed, but now videos, video games and pictures with sexual tones will no longer be allowed. This ‘G’ rating approach is apparently intended to clean the App Store prior to the release of the iPad. Apple wishes to market the iPad to hospitals, church groups and schools, who may object to this type of sexual service offered in the App Store. While there is no arguing with this logic, why Apple can’t simply block adult services from children is beyond comprehension. Sexuality is big business and Apple may have just lost a ton of cash by not providing it. Of course, we shouldn’t worry about Apple going bankrupt any time soon.
