You're saying that people can't tell the difference between a telephone and a store, but they can tell the difference between an application written in HTML and Javascript and an application written in Objective-C? I get that we're all technical people here, but you're looking at this wrong. Imagine this conversation: BOB: I am really angry at this thing my kid was playing with. It portrays a class of people as less than human. TOM: That's horrible, where did she find it? BOB: HorribleWebsite.com TOM: That's tough, have you talked with her about being careful on the net? Now Bob's daughter may have been using an iPhone, or an Android phone, or a computer, it doesn't matter. The Internet is unavoidable, and we have to deal with things that we don't like. Lets try another. BOB: I am really angry at this thing my kid was playing with. It portrays a class of people as less than human. TOM: That's horrible, where did she find it? BOB: She bought it on the AppStore. TOM: Apple lets them sell that sort of thing? I'm going to take my son's away and get him another phone. I don't need that in my life. Now, does either Bob or Tom know the different between an "Objective-C" application and an HTML5 offline bookmark? I can't tell, and it doesn't matter. They do know whether this offensive content can be avoided by abandoning the platform based on whether this is "web" content or not. But sure, show your crying kittens video. Apple doesn't know what they're doing, their success was probably just luck.
