I think Apple's mistake was to permit adult content in the first place. My wife was looking through apps the other night, and she was appalled to see the number of sex apps showing up in searches. Apple needs to maintain a reasonable tone in the app store, and banning objectionable material is a pretty good start.

If only there were an abstraction of some sort that could be applied to resolve the dilemma. Perhaps we could look to the works of Russell and earlier philosophers and arrive at a solution. We could call it a type- or, hmm, maybe a category-based system... one which could organize apps with different attributes that appeal to different cross-sections of the user base. Yes, categories sound like the best shot at making everyone happy. Someone should bring that up with Steve Jobs. Who knows, there could be a patent in it for him.
