Apple Bans Adaptation of James Joyce’s Ulysses from App Store

[Banned due to a scene which features a nude man diving into the ocean][link]. It isn’t even well-rendered generalia, nor is it sexual in nature. It’s just a little lump below his belly. It’s just a penis, which takes up maybe 1/64th of one panel of a comic book.

I guess comic adaptations of James Joyce don’t fit Apple’s definition of “liberal arts.”
