All that being said, I am happy this smut is getting pulled (although if I had my way all the fart apps would have been pulled first). The iPhone is quietly elegant. The "sexy apps" totally have cheapened the experience for me. Now on the other side, Apple needs to be consistent. In addition, I feel for developers who had the rules changed on them after the fact. Imagine if you spent time and other resources to create a financial app, and then Apple denied all money apps 6 months later? It is arguably more foreseeable with "sexy apps", but still they played by the rules. In conclusion, I am selfishly very happy with this decision and feel it was long overdue.
