10 Controversial, Rejected and Removed iPhone Apps

There’s no mistake Apple is in hot water with their App Store inclusion/rejection process but some of the rejected were just plain bizarre. The most recent one that’s got the FCC investigating Apple, is the Google Voice app but before then, Apple had faced criticism from the public on various apps that were included and/or rejected. We’ve got 10 of them here for you

Booty Call
Why?: Sexual content

Apple doesn’t allow any sexual content on their app, but Booty Call didn’t have any sexual content, unless you count tips on hooking up.

Freedom Time
Why?: Making fun of public figures.

As you can tell by the picture in the app, it was probably targeting guys like Bush and politicians. I don’t see why this was a problem. Apparently Steve Jobs sent the app developer a personal email saying it’ll offend half of their customers.

Google Voice
Why?: AT&T told Apple to

This has caused the most controversy among all the rejected apps by Apple. It has led to government inquiries as well as the resignation of an Apple Board Member.

I am Rich
Why?: No reason other than stupidity

This was a dumb app to begin with. It’s just a red gem that glows but cost a whopping $999. Yup, that’s nine hundred and ninety nine dollars. Apple removed it in August 2008, but not before 8 people bought it. I wonder which idiot would such an app. I don’t know why Apple yanked the app. They could have left the app and laughed at the idiots who buy it. They still get 30% of the cut.

Netshare
Why?: No reason but because tethering wasn’t allowed on the iPhone.

This was a wonderful app that allowed tethering, something many iPhone users were clamoring for. Unfortunately AT&T pressure Apple to remove the app because it was taxing their network. Tethering is coming soon to the iPhone some this year.

Slasher
Why?: Offensive

Looks like a virtual app can increase crime. At least that’s what folks in UK were worried about when the slasher app. The app had a picture of a knife and when shaken it plays the Psycho theme.

Letter from my King!

Letter from my King!

My Princess,
Come to Me right now, and let Me open your spiritual eyes as I did for Elisha’s servant when a deadly army surrounded him. With his spiritual eyes he could see an entire host of My heavenly warriors and chariots of fire there to protect him. You are also My chosen one, and I promise to protect you if you will walk by faith in the midst of your daily battles. Don’t forget that there is an unseen enemy of your soul who will try to cause you to stumble, so let Me be your eyes when you cannot see. And remember “Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). I am He. I am the one who fights for you. Even when you feel like you are in the middle of a war, the battle is not yours – its Mine. So let Me open your eyes of faith, and you will see that the victory is won.

Love,
God
Your king who gives you sight

Richard Haines for 3sixteen

Illustrator Richard Haines got together with New York’s 3sixteen for a series of works. Haines produced sketches for the 3sixteen street campaign, which has by now been plastered all over the Lower East Side. Once again the work is impressive and could not fit the 3sixteen brand any better.

Check out the video below of Richard Haines talking about the collaboration.

I’m on board for this project. I think its a cool concept. That song “As We Are” was dope!

BUT…… I really, really HOPE that they can produce a commercial, radio friendly enough song that can push the album and tour, cuz unless his bullshit lawyers kick ass on that appeal, he’s gonna be needing the money!

But again, I’m on deck. Nas is one of the few artist that can get a purchase from me, and this is one that will be in my collection.
