If you believe the moral crusaders in Apple’s App Review Team, the face you see to the right is an avatar of carnality and smut. Her name is Lyudmila Bouzinova, ad she’s a contestant on America’s Top Model.
According to Techradar, the guys at DLP Mobile were contacted by Apple after submitting an update to Mirror App, accompanied by in-app screenshots of Bouzinova.
Okay, maybe you could make an argument that she looks a little bit trampy, but Apple’s response seems overblown. They claimed that the images could be considered “obscene, pornographic or defamatory,” and while the app wasn’t pulled, DLP was asked to resubmit their application with updated images.
It’s not a big deal, but seriously: did Apple have to invent a time-machine to recruit App Review Team employees prudish enough to get the vapors at the mere site of an exposed clavicle? Do they have to wear burqas to work? Or is the guideline just that something is deemed risque if there’s merely a chance someone out there is going to get aroused looking at it? Because Rule 34, my friends.
