Apple is still not budging on having porn content on the iPhone because they have a "moral responsibility" to their consumers. If that didn't sound like corporate b.s. to you then you're an Apple zombie. If they were so damn adamant on not having porn on their products, why did they relent on having porn in their iPad?

LOS ANGELES — Adult operators hoping for a thaw in iTunes content policies will find no encouragement as Apple's Steve Jobs reportedly states his belief that the company has a "moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone."
Apple CEO Steve Jobs has recently been responding to customer complaints over the company's perceived role as content censor — a situation made more troubling by its tight control of the primary content distribution mechanism for its popular i-Platforms.
Previously, Jobs made headlines for referring adult consumers to the competitive Android platform for their mobile porn fix, when after an iPhone developer event he commented, "You know, there's a porn store for Android. You can download nothing but porn."
"You can download porn, your kids can download porn," Jobs opined. "That's a place we don't want to go — so we're not going to go there."
