So yeah, an app called "Porn View" showed up while I was demoing
Ubuntu to a friend. Despite the brief embarrassment and explanations,
I doubt that person will take Ubuntu seriously. We should probably
restrict pornographic apps to the store and keep the lenses PG.
Perhaps we should remove the Bible apps as well then. I find it
seriously offensive. But maybe it's only nature that's unholy? USA are
now making it illegal to teach the history of racism. They are also
trying to make it illegal to teach non-theism.
We should not forbid other peoples wishes because of ancient beliefs in
witches and weird stuff. If Ubuntu starts to sensor things, it will no
doubt be my reason to not only drop out, but become an extremely verbal
enemy.
What if we sell books, should Lady Chatterley's Lover be forbidden
because it might not be perfectly suitable to children or fanatical
christians? I will never, ever be a part of anything remotely similar to
that. Present your next idea.
