Racy Danish Tabloid May Sue Apple For App Rejection

the_arrow writes "In Denmark the tabloid newspaper Ekstra Bladet usually have scantily clad ladies on page 9. When making an iPad application, Apple of course rejected it because of that. However, Ekstra Bladet is not happy with that, and many sites report that Ekstra Bladet is thinking about taking Apple to European court for 'unfair censorship and anti-competitive behaviour.'"

      Hope you are geting my drift here... In fact, I suspect that Apple's problem is probably not so much with the ladies on page 9

      Come on, the last thing Apple users want to see is nekkid chicks.

    Will someone please link to the part of the website for that tabloid that contains the alleged prurient content? I would like to verify myself to determine if the offending content warrants censorship. Let's not be hasty about condemning apple for their possibly righteous behavior without examining very carefully page 9 to see if it offends our sensibilities.

    Seriously, why is this shit on Slashdot?

    What would Slashdot be without the occasional bashing of each and every big software company? That's like half of the reason to be here!
