<p>In a further attempt to squeeze any sense of titillation out of their app store, Apple has banned apps for a variety of minor sexual offenses, here goes the list as compiled by Jon Atherton, the developer of Wobble &#8212; more about <a href="http://chillifresh.com/wobble/">Wobble </a>a little later.</p>
<blockquote><p>1. No images of women in bikinis (Ice skating tights are not OK either)</p>
<p>2. No images of men in bikinis! (I didn’t ask about Ice Skating tights for men)</p>
<p>3. No skin (he seriously said this) (I asked if a Burqa was OK, and the Apple guy got angry)</p>
<p>4. No silhouettes that indicate that Wobble can be used for wobbling boobs (yes – I am serious, we have to remove the silhouette in this pic)</p>
<p>5. No sexual connotations or innuendo: boobs, babes, booty, sex – all banned</p>
<p>6. Nothing that can be sexually arousing!! (I doubt many people could get aroused with the pic above but those puritanical guys at Apple must get off on pretty mundane things to find Wobble “overtly sexual!)</p>
<p>7. No apps will be approved that in any way imply sexual content (not sure how Playboy is still in the store, but …)</p></blockquote>
<p>This is distressing because, well we like to be titillated, at least a little and worse Apple has built an ecosystem around the iPhone/iPod touch/soon iPad with developers depending on the app store as a way of making a living.  How does one do that when Apple arbitrarily makes new rules that seem to imply they have taken their view of morality from the Taliban.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, Wobble &#8212; it allows you to take a photo and make &#8220;hotspots&#8221; wobble, like say boobs, butts or a guy&#8217;s junk.  Watch the video  at the top.</p>
