Apple’s path towards the Orwellian overlord company it didn’t want to be in 1984 continues. As we all know, Apple recently rejected Camera+ for allowing people to use the volume buttons to take pictures. Now, Apple has rejected a small update to the Read It Now app. Why? Apple explains…

“Applications cannot require user registration prior to allowing access to app features and content; such user registration must be optional and tied to account-based functionality.”

WTF mate? That doesn’t make any sense at all. So you can’t have an app that requires registration, unless it’s required for account related functionality. What is Apple smoking here? The app is back in the store, I know one thing, if this kind of stuff continues on the App Store, I might have to make the switch to Droid. Apple’s just getting way too nutty these days. I mean, we hear something on a weekly basis about an app that gets rejected for weird reasons. This needs to end.
