I began this article thinking that it was interesting how all of the tables have turned with the loss of the presidency by the Republican Party. Yet after writing it, I see that things have remained pretty much the same.

Many iPhone users, myself included, have long complained about Apple's policies which have locked consumers into high prices for low quality service. Arguably, they have also run the App Store like a dictatorship preventing applications that might potentially compete with products that they offer or sell.
The Federal Communications Commission recently submitted interrogatories to Apple in its ongoing investigation of Apple's monopoly on applications and vendor lock-in with AT&T. Below is Apple's response to those interrogatories.
Bear in mind, that after hearing from several developers, many have had issues with applications being denied without any justification from Apple. They simply recieve a denial in the form of an email with no further information. Examples include versions of Lyrics, Pocket God, and numerous other programs listed at this site.
At the bottom of Apple's response are links to several news articles from affected developers that came out after Apple's response. I will try to keep this list current.

A friend recently posted a video on Facebook that was an excerpt of a report done by Fox News Channel on its "Fox & Friends" program. Her understandable disgust was expressed as "This is ridiculous! So the following words are now offensive?!???? Teenager, American, Poor, Deaf, Minority, etc. Seriously, these text book writers need to get a grip on reality because they are clearly very confused!"
I watched the video. In fact, I have posted a link to it below (I did not want to waste my space with their diatribe). I admit that the report is shocking, but consider the source, or the lack thereof. There is no attribution to where the information was obtained. There is no real discussion on the bodies responsible for banning the words. And the entire article was placed in the context that this was a liberal (read Democrat) project to brainwash America's youth. When I challenged the report, my politics were immediately called into question as I must be a liberal. As though that somehow implies anti-American.
