And I really have to wonder why people are so enamoured with Apple. This man whips out his p**is and pisses all over the Apple crowd and they start screaming for joy wanting more. That's Apple fans for you.
Get off your high horse Jobs.

[citation][nom]stevejobsrules[/nom]Steve Jobs rules. Period! I am so glad that there are people out there trying to protect us from stupidity and perverts. There is no need for porn on iPhones. The Internet is vast and if you need to watch porn you can do it on your own terms. Also, you can pretty much browse from your iPhone's browsers to any porn page you want. Oh, wait! You guys don't own an iPhone. So, why do you get all upset? Bunch of whiners! Also, God is watching you.[/citation]


1) God - Does not exist
2) Steve Jobs is not God.
3) I've noticed a rising trend in stupid, young, arrogant and Republican types like yourself buying into this iPhone trend.

Incidentally I neither own an iPhone or watch porn. I just had idiots.

@ smnoamls - never said lust isn't part of sex, I said isolating lust is unhealthy as I believe it is selfish and not the intention of love. I am glad to hear you are a father and love and serve your wide and enjoy amazing sex with her. That sounds like a full picture relationship.

@ zybch - no, I don't mean just off my iPhone. I mean off all iPhones. I think it is a shame that porn is so culturally widespread, and I do think it's a cultural problem that has far reaching implications. Beyond that, porn apps would without a doubt increase unintended exposure to pornography. I also see it as degrading to the family values that Apple maintains with it's App Store.


Who am I to decide what's beautiful, right/wrong, or good for society? I am no one, just me.

Then again, who are YOU to decide what is morally right for society? You are no one, just you.

Those questions are above any of us. I am simply stating my opinion.

So did Steve Jobs, and since it is his company, his phone, and his app store, he can do what he wants. There are people who will agree and disagree with him - you don't have to support the company. I stand behind it and say props to him - you don't, that's cool. To that, he said go buy the Android.

I only post to say I think there is legitimate reasoning and since Apple is only a gateway to the internet, and not the internet itself, everyone's points about censorship are - in my opinion - irrelevant. Apple has nowhere near a monopoly and I applaud someone who believes in something and stands up for it, even if it is unpopular or costs the company money.

Personally I'd like to see our society return to a greater respect for sexuality and women. Not the victorian era, but certainly not today where women are made into sex objects to be lusted after. Every women is someone's daughter.

I understand about porn but I disagree with Jobs
Unfortunatly Apple learn NOTHING from his past.
For that today Windows have monopoly.

Sure for now things work good for Apple, but it's just a short moment. When it will have some competition against iPhone and iPad, Apple will continue to lose market.

Apple think to be "Closed" is good.
Well I think it's a mistake.

It's long time I stop to "believe" in Apple.

Even if I begin with a Apple ][+.

OK, so you can browse the net with the iPhone.
The net has porn content, right?
Does that mean that the iPhone was built purposefully, specifically and primarily to be able to reach porn on-the-go or what?

Morality aside, the failure of logic and outright implication that a competitors product has a "less-than-fascist-watchman" angle of approach is what really makes me wonder if Jobs really has a full scoop of ice cream i his sundae...

First I've got to say that everybody who has responded to this article so far is pretty much an idiot, especially the ones harping on the "and" instead of "an" typo. Steve Jobs is charismatic and knows how speak, and no I am not an apple fanboy here, and it is doubtful that he said that. It is most likely just a simple typo by the author of this article.

The second reason everyone so far is an idiot is that nobody is stopping from putting porn on your iphone you are just not being allowed to buy it from apple. The iphone/itouch/ipad are still media players and itunes will still convert a pornographic movie to be playable on all these devices. And guess what, none of these devices know, or even care about, what the movie is or it's rating unless you tell it to. So buy and download all the porn you want and have itunes covert it and watch it on your iphone and shut the hell up and stop whining about stuff before you go become informed.

To the guy who says God doesn't exist, you're the biggest idiot of all so it much suck hating yourself. However you are entitled to you opinion and I will respect even though I don't share it. Just like I respect Jobs' decision, and you should too, to not allow port apps because it's his choice. By the way it's the young, LIBERAL idiots that don't know how to think for themselves that buy into the whole apple/iphone crap. I'm not here to get into a political debate but if you pole the apple buying public the overwhelming majority will be liberal simply due to the age bracket.

Now I have no problem admitting that I watch porn but I don't think I'll watch it on any device more mobile than my laptop; and then only in the privacy of my room or, if I'm traveling, my hotel room.

Lastly porn is a very profitable industry but I wouldn't want it in any app store that I would be shopping in. Not because I object to it but because of what has happened to the internet, there are more porn sites than any other type of site. If an app store allowed porn apps it would quickly turn into the problem of there being more porn apps than anything else and it would be even harder to find what you are looking for.

Oh my god, I have never seen people so upset about the lack of porn on a PHONE!! You have a home and I assume a computer with the internet, you can get your fix there. I guess we need to pass a law, no masturbation while driving. GET LIVES!!

"Apple’s role isn’t moral police – Apple’s role is to design and produce really cool gadgets that do what the consumer wants them to do."

What self-delusion gives Steve Jobs the moral authority to decide what pornography is and whether the users of its hardware can access what it calls pornographic material; is the work of the artist Mapplethorpe pornography? Given Apple's new moral-police role, it might be prudent for Apple to call itself iJesus, or maybe iPapa. The sooner you ditch crApple the better.

[citation][nom]dannyaa[/nom]Huge Props to Steve. I fully support keeping porn off the iPhone. It is sad to me that our culture has slipped so much from the times when pornography was a shameful thing to something that is widely supported and OKed. It's perverse and disgusting.Sex is beautiful because sex is about love. Porn takes out all other elements and responsibilities of love and highlights lust. It makes it all about gratifying one's self, which is the polar opposite of what love is supposed to be.Honestly, thank God for this. Porn in the App Store would just make the whole store and device trashy.[/citation]

You are really lost in your mind, sex is NOT about love, sex is about reproduction, it is a base instinct, the need to breed and produce offspring. We are an animal life form, just as all the other life forms on this planet. We differ from most only in that we have sex for pleasure rather than just to reproduce, why? because it feels good and we as a species have developed intelligence and understand it is a pleasurable thing, Dolphins also have casual sex are they to be damned to hell because of it?

If there is a god, he made us the way we are, made us have these sexual urges and desires so by fighting them you are in fact fighting against gods wishes... think about it. Or should everyone become Muslim and have all women walk around in a burka? or perhaps we should return to Victorian times where they were so obsessed even the table legs had to be covered because it was considered to sexual for people to see them (this is true look it up)

Sex is a natural desire, we are born with it, it is a chemical reaction in the brain, religion on the other hand is man made, and if as you proclaim you believe in god (a Christian I presume) is it not in gods hands to judge us, and not you? Funny violent movies on tv and no one gives a shit, but hey show a bit of sex and everyone freaks out, I don't hear steve jobs saying he is banning violent movies at all.

Sexual repression leads to perversion, rapes, sexual crime and an unbalanced mind. Besides it is my life so I will choose so please kindly fuck off, oh that's right your to sexually repressed to fuck, better just walk off to church then

Stevie Jobs: Jesus would buy iPad

in Saudi Arabia: Mohammad would buy iPad

Somewhere else: Buddha, Krishna, etc. would buy iPad

Anybody else could buy Android and watch porn all day and night long.
