Said Jobs: "(We) believe we have a moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone." Indeed, he even suggested that those who want to view pornography on their smartphones should purchase a competitor's model, where "you can download porn, your kids can download porn."

A backbone like this, plus a stellar string of winners, makes it easier to understand why it's becoming cool to hate Apple.

However, this is, as far as I'm concerned, the crown on Mr. Jobs' most remarkable career.

Godspeed Mr.Jobs. Hope you're sincere. Don't be surprised if it costs you everything.

Good, but it may also be that such sites, i assume, are responsible for a lot of malware.
