    Apple does this - Apple does that...... this never had anything to do with Apple censorship - Apple didn't want to get sued so a pre-emptive blanket ban on anything that could cause a problem seeems logical - you pay your money. If your wanting to view these cartoons you don't need a fucking App to do it.....

    Can you link me to that other app store where I can buy applications for a non-jailbroken iphone?

    Have you tried magicalimaginaryappstore.not?

    perhaps people like you will stfu and pull your heads out from jobs arsehole.

    Apple hasn't changed the rules you agreed to when you bought the product, no mater how much the market has changed

    I didn't agree to any rules.

    But Apple certainly has changed their rules for what they approve and what developers can and cannot do.
