At least we have the freedom to file frivolous lawsuits, among many other freedoms.

Having said that, this case will be dismissed with prejudice.

And that's the shame of it.....as it has a real impact on the rest of the world!

you notice that he's not suing the porn sites?

Because they don't have any money. Same reason that people sue Smith and Wesson when they get shot. The person pulling the trigger is often broke. Companies have money.

That is beyond stupid. You buy an IPad to be able to have all internet accessibility (other than what requires Flash). What you do with your product after you buy it, is not at the fault of Apple, but to the person who looks it up. How is that Apple's fault that he got addicted to porn, and fell out of relations with his wife. That is his own. And nonetheless, a lawyer?! What has this world come to, when you can blame a company for your own actions and lustful wants? Shame on you.

Dell is next.

No, I mean the Think Pady guys.

And those pesky Android fones with web access.

The library must go, too. Yup, you read it here first . . . unrestricted access to porn and We The People pay for it. I rather like Rubenesque wimmen myself, so I hate to see them go. Since probably my web enabled shoe warmer and toilet that tells time in CA . . . the hub of all porn, all I need is a monitor and cable and an itunes app and I can have porn everywhere. See I told you there will be a price to pay for unrestricted porn. What is next, some company will discover how to make hard copy available at my 7-11?

When I want to see a great looking naked guy, I look into the mirror. I'll tell you what, I am hot, hot, hot!

If everything allows unrestricted access to nekked wimmen, then, well, I will just kill myself. Whew, I am all porned out. I plan to sue DARPA for bringing us the Internet; they started it all. I mean Al Gore who invented the Internet, that is.

I find it interesting that Apple makes us view porn and Al Gore is an Apple board member. See the connection? The Internet and Apple's plan allong was to porn-i-fy us to dickens.

I just saw a site with naked kittens and the cows were not wearing diapers. So it is everywhere you want to be. I guess it is porn even in the bobvine world. So cows are naked, they deficate in public and they fornicate at will and the farmer is not required to bleep and censor their cow's naughty behavour? I say we start with the cows and then turn off the Internet.

I think am glad to see the end to iPorn, it is about time.

By the way, what are you all wearing? I am in the tub with my iPad, two little rubber ducks and the battleship. I have a hankering for a burger for some reason.

I changed my mind. I want more porn. Not the hard core stuff, but wimmen showing their ankles, really does it for me.

And for God's sake, when they remake "I Love Lucy" can't they push the beds together? We all know what happens when the lights go out, anyway. Wink wink nudge nudge. Ricky pretends to sleep because he really hates the blathering and Lucy begs Ricky for a part in one of his shows.

I think you missed my last statement: "dismissed with prejudice".

But you're right, products like the Apple iPad developed in America have a real impact on the world. ;)

Let's throw a monkey wrench into this conversation.

What if this lawsuit has nothing to do with his own short commings as a responsible adult. What if this is a religious law suit? I.E. He is trying to protect others from porn, especially children.

There is no legal way he can force Apple to add a safety feature by saying "Kids can look at this smut". If Apple was so inclined, it would have added that feature years ago. Considering how they police the applications for this type of content to begin with. But by singling out himself as an individual, then the case is reviewed with a less critical eye for its merit. If he can get this case on to a court's docket, he will have a real starting point to work with for his true agenda.

Something to think about.

There are people who don't know you can access porn on the Internet? Have they been in comas?
