image thumb11 YES! Another App gets a ban from Apple: Someecards App this time for being Funny

Now isn’t Apple being a dictator? Why so? Well it wants to exercise an absolute control over what gets across it and it keeps reminding people of its authority by banning one app after another in the App Store. The latest is one from Someecards. The reason? Well Apple thinks that the funny application has every bit of it that is objectionable and it makes fun of public figures. Now if only every one of us would follow Apple, think how bore the world is going to be and worse still, if Apple were to form the next government in the U.S or anywhere else in the world how severely that would affect standup comedians who live off ripping and ridiculing public figures? I don’t really see the point when all this content is already available on the main site too and the iPhone can be used to view all that in the Safari browser it has. Lame to be honest.

image119 Another iPhone App gets rejected by Apple: TweetPhoto, for another lame reason

I am not sure how easily does Apple accept applications on its App Store, but I am dead sure it will reject them for the slightest excuse. The latest to be rejected is TweetPhoto. The reason? Well the logo appears to be in some way a resemblance of Polaroid photograph. Bravo! And the ah so just team members accepted Polarize which even has a very close resemblance to the name Polaroid. I am lost here, Apple blocks one app for the iPhone for one reason but accepts another one which appears to violate their own rule more. Will someone please tell me what exactly is the policy behind all boot and lock game?
