According to iTunes, "jailbreak" is a four-letter word
- Thursday, 17 May 2012 10:50
Someone at Apple appears to have decided that the word "jailbreak" is a dirty word. The term is now being filtered in iTunes Store search results, as originally reported by Shoutpedia.
Apple often filters many of the most common swear words (but curiously, not "bitch"). When returning search results for these terms, the iTunes Store will show the word with most letters replaced with asterisks, e.g. "f**k."
And now, searching for the term "jailbreak" returns numerous results for songs and albums titled "J*******k." Curiously, the filtering doesn't appear to include a handful of TV shows and books with the word "jailbreak" or "jailbreaks" in the title, nor does it filter the word in every single case.

feature: CES in pictures: the good, the bad, the Elvis
- Monday, 11 January 2010 00:45
CES is a daunting show to cover, filled with emerging technologies, new products hoping to change the world, and a few goofy surprises here and there. What you don't often see is what goes on around the fringes of the show: the products that don't get written about, the booth designs intended to draw your eye and get you to walk in, and the weird tricks companies try to get your attention.
This year every major player wanted you to put on glasses to look at content, you could get your picture taken with Elvis at a few different places, and if you knew were to look you could sit in Captain Kirk's chair. Welcome to our CES, in pictures.
