Joost comes to iPhone, bringing nudity with it
Steve Jobs said “porn” was one of the things Apple was going to keep off the iPhone. An empty promise, of course, because not only did they include a web browser, but users are also free to load their own movies and pictures on it.
The only area in which Apple could exert this control is on the applications, where Apple gets to vet every single program before it gets to the iPhone.
Which is what makes Joost so odd. Because not only does the streaming video app crash a lot and feature a terrible user interface, it also has porn. Right there, on the “popular” video section, in a video entitled “Shirt Off – Tropical Honeys.” And that’s a pretty accurate description.
