I don’t know, I tried to track down a blog post by one of the developers of NinjaWords. I was certain that I had read a post on a blog by one of the developers that he was all but forced to censor his dictionary. Sometimes the internet can be your friend and sometimes it can be your enemy. Ah well…

If you read Gruber’s piece, the only thing Apple told them to do was wait until OS 3.0 came out so they could implement parental controls. The developer then took it upon themselves to begin editing the dictionary and Apple simply responded to the edits they’d made. I’ve read Gruber’s piece several times and I’ve yet to figure out how he came to the conclusion that Apple insisted the dictionary be edited.
