Sorry, this article is still just PG!
The recent upgrade to the iPhone OS 3.0 contained one interesting little feature that hasn't had too much publicity: nudity support. With support for parental controls, the app store can now sell apps that are rated for mature audiences. And it shouldn't be any great surprise that it didn't take long for the iPhone to go topless.
Hottest Girls, an app by Allen "the Geek" Leung, was released on May 6th, 2009, but only contained non-nude pictures until today. The first topless photos were uploaded by the developer, and it didn't take long for a mad gold rush to hit the iPhone store.
In fact, so many people rushed to buy the first iPhone app with nudity that Allen Leung pulled it from the store. The website now states that the servers simply cannot handle many more users, but promises the app will go back on sale soon.
I guess when the Hottest Girls app description boasts that you can have the hottest girls in your pocket, it is setting up the line, "Is that an iPhone in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

I appreciate this information. Is it possible for a child to delete or over ride the parental controls on the Ipod Touch?
