Why is Apple approving these apps in the first place, knowing they are going to pull them down later?

And since these applications get their content via the internet, should Apple take Safari or Mail out of the iPhone too? Or Beehive, which can be used to send pictures on the fly to other users? And Facebook too? My camera?

Yeah, that's what I thought. This is stupid and has to stop. Either you apply the same filter to everything, or you open the application market for real. Just make sure things work, and are not illegal on its own, not because of the potential content they may fetch from the internet. [Krapps]
