Apple Balks, Finally Relents, At Possible User Queries of Dictionary App

Geoffrey.landis writes with a snippet from CNET reporting another example of offputting treatment at Apple's App Store: "'In this case, it's a dictionary app called Ninjawords (so called because ninjas are 'smart, accurate, and really fast') that was rejected three times over the course of two months, mostly because 'objectionable' words could be looked up and found in the dictionary's search function, Gruber reported.' PCWorld also reports the story." Note that the app was eventually approved, but only after a few go-rounds and changes.

So wait, Apple don't have a Monopoly but we blast them as if they had one anyway ? I don't quite get the logic behind it. We blast Microsoft because they are a monopoly and we don't have an alternative. With Apple, what good is all that negative energy ? Just walk away and get another smartphone.
