Why apple banned sun from Iphone
The sun was in the list of newspaper browsing application in iphone but later it was banned by Apple because of its Page 3 content could be granted a reprisal – thanks to the impending release of firmware version 3.0.
The 59p Newspaper(s) app was approved for sale by Apple last week. It lets iPhone or iPod Touch owners read from a selection of “the 50 best” national and international papers.
When Apple announced last week that downloads from its App Store has topped one billion, it confirmed that “the iPhone OS 3.0 release will also add… expanded parental controls for apps”.
So the assumption is that if The Sun makes it into Newspaper(s) as a result of firmware version 3.0’s expanded parental controls then the floodgates will swing open for more people to submit raunchy iPhone apps.
