On Vox: iphone Porn by city
Jun. 23rd, 2008 08:00 amThe upswing of people viewing porn on iPhones is apparantly a big blogging target right now. My trend tracker pointed to this google trends page.

The page had a breakdown by cities which had an unusual oddity:
DC is number one, no surprises there. Finally congressmen can look at porn from the Senate floor.
But look at #3. Richardson Texas? Where is Richardson Texas, and why does it create more hits for iPhone porn than *either* Las Vegas or Los Angeles?
Wikipedia says that the population is around 100,000 people, so more people can't be the answer... The answer must be... more iPhones per capita. Why do you think that is? Well, Richardson is home to 600 high tech companies, including telco companies, like Nortel, Ericsson, Texas Instruments and.... AT&T. An added advantage of the 3G network, clearly!
Other surprises are Irvine and Pleasanton both placing ahead of San Jose or Cupertino, so Apple is clearly able to keep a handle on the illicit porn.
