Hmm... if you don't have iPhone you are not cool. If you are not cool and out of the trend chicks would not like you - so - NO SEX for you, dude!

I understand it. More or less. You can use your browser for porn. You can download porn and put it on your iphone if you want. Nothing is stopping you from that sneaky hand shandy.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find a company thats major dealings is with the general public, and has porn applications from it's own approved store. Especially, when there is nothing stopping someone who wants to have porn on their hardware anyway.

Let us be fair; Jobs is just being a bit juvenile in his defense of Apples decision and, unjustifiably labeling another product as a porn etailer. That's where my problem is. A company official being a douche.

Don´t let him make this a debate of porn. The thing is that Mr Jobs is limiting lots of stuff. Like he is now demanding that 3rd party designers should only use Apples API (Application Program Interface) This will make it harder (impossible?)for designers to design Apps to be used on iPhone/iTouch/iPAD but also be easily adapted for Android and other environments,

This is the method which lousy politicians use to make you discuss an area where they think they will have more support. If you ask regarding taxes will they answer that they created a few police officer positions and continue discussing safety on the streets. Don´t let Mr Jobs do this!

So pretty much Apple is the E-harmony of gadget makers, they only want a few certain people and if you don't meet their criteria you get no service.

Well that probably just sold a few more Android devices.

And pretty soon Apple Almighty will try to tell you what books you can or cannot read on "their" i-whatever (since you don't own the i-whatever that you purchased because its still the property of Apple Almighty as far as Apple Almighty is concerned) because they approve or disapprove of "your" choices in the matter since "your" choices might conflict with "Apple Almighty's" morals and choices for you.

I bet he still tells his wife pr0n is disgusting and evil. I bet that's why he's so in denial.

Steve Jobs is killing children! Scientists have shown that masturbating at least once in a while is good for your health and gives a better chance of having healthy children.

Suggesting a customer go to the competition when they request a new feature doesn't seem like sound business practice to me.

I'm not an Apple fan, but they are really sticking to their guns on this!
I have to say if they were going to pick somewhere to draw the line in the sand I could have found a better place than this.

I agree
Speaking of Google, they just launched a web page to let users know how much various governments are asking (obtaining) information on users and such. The USA is almost at the top. That did not surprise me, especially with the Socialist regime we have in charge right now who wanted to read anyone's e-mail without a subpoena.

I have an iPhone, and the idea of using it to view teh pr0n has never crossed my mind. While I don't believe that masturbation inherently leads to blindness, I'm pretty sure viewing porn on the iPhone's little screen might.

Jobs is a damn control freak. Kinda like that whore from the bible who convinced Adam to eat the forbidden fruit...
