There are some parallels as Tumblr similarly could not control its content sufficiently to both allow most of it and also ensure the problematic content did not persist. Just explaining, not defending either social network or Apple.
- zepto 6y agoOk but that isn’t ‘anything remotely controversial’.
- 1123581321 6y agoPresumably advocates of NSFW content on large social networks don’t see a problem with it. Hopefully you see where the other user was coming from now; not looking for you to agree with them.
- zepto 6y agoI do but I think their point wasn’t well made, and is frankly misleading and wrong. There are very specific kinds of content that lead to these kinds of bans. Pornography and organizing violence are amongst them. It isn’t about controversial content.
- jonwithoutanh 6y agoBut that's not really true, for example reddit has a massive amount of porn and yet none of the reddit apps get banned.
- zepto 6y agoWhy do you think that is?
