Minor drama at the Apple Store: If you’re wondering why Eucalyptus is not yet available, it’s currently in the state of being ‘rejected’ for distribution on the iPhone App Store. This is due to the fact that it’s possible, after explicitly searching for them, to find, download from the Internet, and then read texts that Apple deems ‘objectionable’. The example they have given me is a Victorian text-only translation of the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana. For the full background, a log of my communications with Apple is below.
Apple's explanations are about as credible as Maureen Dowd's. Tell Apple what you think: Can’t find something on the iTunes Store? We’re constantly improving our catalog of music, audiobooks and videos. Use the form below to let us know what you’re looking for.
From the archive, Teresa DiFalco: Minor drama is the lifeblood of suburbs.
Update: The drama subsides, with Apple finally acting sensibly. Whither Eucalyptus? |
