Apple: Hypocrites or Just Stupid

Posted on April 28, 2010 By Michael Kavka No Comments on Apple: Hypocrites or Just Stupid

Ok, so Apple wants to represent the high moral ground. While this can be called commendable, the new $2 app called Puff Puff Pass is all about smoking. You can’t have it both ways Apple.

Steve Jobs recently said something along the lines of, “If you want porn, get an Android.” Jobs scoffed at the open development and that porn apps were made for the Android phones. Now don’t think of the fact that there are apps for the iPhone/iPad from Playboy, which makes the statement somewhat laughable, not to mention that you can get porn on the iPhone through the browser. Now they have allowed an app that is all about smoking. Cigarettes, Pipes, Cigars, yes smoking. I don’t know about you, but smoking is far worse than porn, as it really is a drug that is addictive and bad for you. Now add on that kids can get this app and one has to ask, “What are your morals Apple?”
