Dogmo,

So why exactly am i the "sociopath" we should watch for? Just because I have a different sense of humor that you find "distasteful". Everyone has their own humor, and i find it funny. Yea the app shouldn't have been released, but whatever. Did it Hurt anyone? Did it hurt you Dogmo? No. so just chill out.

How is this sick? There are plenty of other worse sick things in this planet than a baby shaker app that was removed. Take for example the genocide in Africa.

This app is very VERY useless and is not even worth one Zimbabwe dollar. Apple here is in a tough situatin here because it wants to maintain a healthy collection of apps to increase sales and freemarket stuff but it can't also be seen as an super picky store which people might call communist, totalitarian or whatever.

Apple placed itself in a lose-lose scenario with their approval process by essentially choosing to excercise control/censorship over which apps get approved and which don't. If they approve a "questionable" (or out right offensive) app, then they will get criticised. If they reject an app that people feel is a good and reasonable app, then they will get criticized. They created this mess themselves by choosing to control the process rather than just let companies make and sell they apps that they want in a completely free market.
