We just don't get it
	   
	  	  	  
	  
	  	
Apple has pulled 
the plug on an iPhone application which offered an RSS feed to the free 
speech outfit the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
It seems Jobs' Mob looked 
at the application which was perfectly innocent but noticed that a blog on 
the site linked to a Downfall parody. The movie charts Adolf Hitler's last 
days in his bunker and the parody shows Hitler as an furious movie executive 
and demanding takedown notices be sent to everyone using his clips for 
parody.
Apple rejected the application because it contained "objectionable 
content" and removed it from the Application Store. Apple got into all 
sorts of hot water when it first banned and then re-instated a farting 
application at the store. It seems that while it gets farting jokes the 
subtleties of irony and the niceties of Free 
Speech sale over Jobs' Mob 
higher than the International Space Station.
