Those are all true, but so many porn sites use flash video, and from that statement it sounds like that's may well be one of Job's reasons reasons for wanting to keep Flash off the iPad and iPhone.
And it's not much of a further step for them to eventually start pushing filtering software on the iPad Safari browser etc. to try to block porn sites.
I doubt that would happen--but you never know with Jobs and those comments are really bothersome on that front.
I have little problem with them keeping porn apps out of their store, but if it goes further than that I have major issues a company should have no control over the content a person who owns their device can choose to view on it. They don't have to sell the content, but they shouldn't do anything to limit consumers access to it from other sources.
