Apple, you are (sometimes) painful...

I hate Apple's overprotection. iTunes just told me I could get updates for 6 of my iPhone apps. Fine, let's update. The six apps are the following ones:

So the official eBay client, two twitter clients, a Google app, the well-known Shazam to recognize songs and ViaMichelin, a maps app. And still iTunes decided to show me a ridiculous dialog of the kind "You must be over 17 years old to get some of these apps, please click on OK to confirm you are". Unless eBay is a sex-oriented app or ViaMichelin is known to map all the brothels in your area and nobody ever told me, I don't see why such a dialog pops up. And even then, it's so easy to click on OK the dialog is totally useless.
Come on Apple, I don't need a mother, I only need a smartphone. Please give me back my total freedom of choice because I really have the feeling these days you are swallowing it at fast pace...

Peut-être que c'est juste pour se protéger juridiquement ?
Tout à fait, Bob. Reste que cela fait quand même rire…
Je ne veux pas d'un smartphone qui décide quelles applications sont bonnes pour moi.
smarter than you ?
Regarde du cote des CGU d'ebay, pas d'utlisation du site pour les mineurs
