Windows Phone Has A Nasty Porn Addiction
Windows Phone has a widely known downside: It lacks 3rd party apps. Sure, the major ones are there in Facebook, Twitter, Angry Birds and even Spotify, Rdio and Reddit browsers. But besides apps from big-name developers, the rest of the apps are ironically reminiscent of Windows 95-era shareware. And then there's the smut.The lack of high quality apps has seemingly made more room for dirty apps. The categories in Windows Phone's Marketplace are filled with them. These dirty apps are the top hits in Entertainment, Music + Video, Lifestyle, and Health + Fitness. Microsoft should be embarrassed. This isn't about sheltering youngsters from boobs -- rather, Microsoft has failed to give developers freedom and a chance to succeed while at the same time keeping potentially offensive material from sitting so close to the surface.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/k-Dh7fAvku0/
