When it comes to the App Store, Apple usually likes to remain extremely quiet about any issues that may arise and then address them through subtle updates on their website. For example, they have recently added a queue time for developers to see how long their app will take to get accepted. However, when it comes to a $1.99 dictionary app named Ninjawords, Phil Schiller, the senior vice president of Apple, had quite a bit to say.

As the story goes, the developers of this application had to remove some objectionable content from their application and resubmit it to Apple in a more censored way. However, it appears as if all Apple wanted was for them to add a rating of 17+ and not have to censor the app at all since it is based on an open source dictionary where censoring it would be near impossible. If this is true (and I would like to believe it is, coming from such an important employee at Apple), then it seems as if Apple is finally moving in the right direction.
