Apple Bans 'Erotic' Book Cover From iTunes; HuffingtonPost.com, 11/16/12
HuffingtonPost.com; Apple Bans 'Erotic' Book Cover From iTunes:
"Apple has censored books before. Earlier this year, Naomi Woolf's Vagina, a feminist analysis of female anatomy, was asterisked in their store, written as "V****a." They've also eliminated portions of Ulysses, Moby Dick and the Kama Sutra. What makes the removal of Salwa Al Neimi's book unique is that it was censored not due to its content, but its supposedly pornographic cover."
