Steve Jobs and the Lack of Porn on Apps

Al Mohler deals with the issue of Apple not allowing Porn on its apps: Pornography — The Difference Being a Parent Makes

Is Apple about freedom? “Yep,” said Jobs, “freedom from programs that steal your private data. Freedom from programs that trash your battery. Freedom from porn. Yep, freedom. The times they are a changin’.”
Tate actually accuses Jobs of imposing his own morality on the App Store (as if the contrary decision would not be just a reverse form of imposing morality).
“Apple seems to realize that it can do far more box office in its App Store if parents are confident they can let their children make purchases there without strict scrutiny,” Felten observed.

Could this be just a money decision for the kiddie dollar?

A month ago a mate of mine wrote this blog post: Will Christians thank Steve Jobs?
