Really bleak . Like no racy photos , no suggestive language , no bathing courting bleak .
This annihilating news comes by direction ofTechCrunch , who has been following this tale closely ( but not in a uncanny way ) . Initially it seemed that Apple ’s raw insurance was to ban “ overtly sexual content , ” which was dissatisfactory , but , you know , understandable . Now TC has received word from a developer who has discussed the thing with “ multiple App Store reviewers , ” and things are n’t looking too hot . Not even closelipped to hot , in fact .
Said developer was secernate “ there will be no more applications that are for any intent of fervor or titillation . ” Huh ? I get fairly excited playing Tapulous — are they going to ban that too ? Well , if you ’re thinking that maybe behind the exaggeration thing are n’t really so bad , think again . Here ’s the full shakedown , asrecapped by the developer of Wobble , an individual who has been stand in the cascade since Apple first turned on the cold piddle on Thursday night :
1 . No images of char in Bikini ( Ice skating tights are not OK either )
2 . No images of human race in bikinis ! ( I did n’t ask about Ice Skating leotards for man )
3 . No hide ( he seriously pronounce this ) ( I asked if a Burqa was OK , and the Apple bozo become angry )
4 . No silhouettes that indicate that Wobble can be used for coggle pinhead ( yes – I am serious , we have to remove the silhouette in this moving-picture show )
5 . No sexual connotations or innuendo : boobs , babe , dirty money , sexual practice – all banned
6 . Nothing that can be sexually evoke ! ! ( I doubt many people could get bring up with the picture show above but those strait-laced guys at Apple must get off on pretty mundane things to line up Wobble “ overtly intimate ! )
7 . No apps will be okay that in any way imply intimate content ( not certain how Playboy is still in the store , but … )
This ca n’t be life ! Of of course , the glimmer of hope here is that Apple is still reviewing their policy and taking a backbreaking agate line while doing so , just to be safe . On the other handwriting , this could it , the real deal , the Puritanical future of apps on the iPhone .
Even if this is n’t a lasting insurance , it ’s hard to believe this is an issue at all . It makes me glad for the relative chaos of the marketplaces of other atomic number 76 . And the freedom . [ TechCrunch ]
