I tend to agree that it is a mistake, but I wouldn't be surprised to find it in the App Store soon. What's next? "Also on *d"?
edit: The above should have multiple asterisks, but HN formatting is a mystery to me.

- objclxt 14y agoIt's not totally surprising, given how Apple's App Review Guidelines already state that "apps or metadata that mentions the name of any other mobile platform will be rejected" (emphasis mine). It's strange that they would actually filter 'jailbreak' out though.
- hahainternet 14y agoOh wow they actually went and made that official now? Christ Apple, every time I come up with something that they might be doing in the future it turns out they're doing it worse than expected right now. There's no excuse whatsoever for that sort of censorship, it's purely anticompetitive. Good job they didn't grab the whole market when they had the chance.

- culturestate 14y agoThere are plenty of terrible Apple policies, but I hardly think that disallowing free advertising for competitors on Apple's own platform is uncalled-for censorship. Would you make similar claims on ABC for not running ads for shows on CBS?
