Interested In Tracking U.S. Drone Strikes? There Isn’t An App For That

Not yet anyway.  Apple keeps rejecting its submission to the App store:

It’s purpose? To send a pop-up notice to the iDevice whenever a drone kills someone and plot it on the map.  Apple rejected it three times now, with the latest reason being “Objectionable and crude”.  I can’t say I’m really surprised at the rejection.  Apple wants to keep its company image as clean and family friendly.  They know who their main audience is, and who they don’t want to scare away.  It’s not worth the risk for them on this app in order to make a few dollars.

JoshBegley, the developer of the app can be found over at his website.  If Apple won’t take the app, maybe he can be convinced to release it for use to the iDevice jail breakers everywhere?

  1. I wonder if Google/Android would reject it…

    Or, alternatively,I wonder if either party would reject a “Drone Spotting” app.
