A gambling application called Fruit Machine Gold is creating some serious waves in the App Store. Fruit Machine Gold is ranked number one on the Casino chart in the App Store and is in the top 30 paid apps overall. Personally, I have not played Fruit Machine Gold, but I can only assume that it is a slots application and that it is gambling in nature. I have no problem with Fruit Machine Gold, but I do have a problem with Apple. Could someone working in the fortress over at Cupertino please explain to me why gambling is ok, but sexual content isn’t? There is no argument that Apple’s business terminology is very often hypercritical. However, this is just insulting. At least Apple should officially announce that it removed adult applications for purely financial and public relations reasons rather than lie and say that they are a family company. If they are, then gambling games should be removed just like porn was.
