Michael Gartenberg, analyst for Altimeter Group, was quite alarmed Thursday night. He opened up the Android Market, typed in “Jewish”, and was greeted by some pro-Hitler themes. After he sent Google a formal protest, the apps were almost immediately pulled. More so than the apps themselves, Gartenberg stated on his Twitter feed that he “was more disturbed at how it came up in search results. Clearly designed to offend”.
Google later sent Gartenberg a response, stating that the apps were “upsetting and violates TOS.”
