  1. Eukaryote says:

    JUST WHAT I NEED!

  2. Aja says:

    Bad touch!

  3. tag says:

    Turn On Services allows sex offenders to find me?

  4. Animaphagus says:

    *wears his rapist glasses, his pedophile beard and his public masturbator trench coat*
    Oh sh*t what’s pedobear doing here again

  5. Redspacecat says:

    So the ‘lite’ version shows only the details of the one’s closest to you. Sounds more like the ‘hardcore’ version to me.

  6. jam says:

    *dresses up as Granny*
    *plays Goodbye Horses*
    *adjusts settings*
    *presses accept*

  7. pootpoot says:

    I feel offended, although not sexually.

  8. one says:

    what could they have possibly meant?

    • Steve says:

      It’s a program called “SexOffenders”, I guess.

      If you want to know if there are registered sex offenders nearby, it has to know where you are.

      So you have to turn on “Location Services” to allow that.

  9. Daniel says:

    Only on iPhone. Thank God for Android!

  10. transistor09 says:

    It’s in quotes, nothing to worry about!

  11. Ash says:

    Incidentally, I think you’ll find that ‘Sex Offenders’ is an iPhone application designed to pinpoint the locations of registered sex offenders on the streetmap. Just in case someone wants to, y’know, organise a good old-fashioned lynching or something. (irony)

  12. Lightfox says:

    There is probably simply a person in the user’s contacts who has the alias “SexOffenders”…not really a fail, just some cheap joke.

    • Animal Driller says:

      Now who would use such a preposterous alias?

    • LoboDemon says:

      “SexOffenders” is the name of the app. The iPhone has the ability to pinpoint your current location, and the app developers can use this functionality but have to request permission from the user. Any app you get that uses current location will pop up with this message.

    • v3n0m0u5 says:

      No, I think it’s for finding registered sex offenders in your area due to the small script at the bottom. “This lite version shows details only for the closest offenders. Touch here to buy the full version and see all available data.” Unfortunately I think the programmers didn’t think about the wording when making the program, or else they did it on purpose

  13. snatchbeast says:

    I’m waiting for the BlackMarketBabySale app to come out

  14. DrB says:

    Works for some.

    Oh, btw I clicked your clicky yesterday. Thanks for that *cough*.

    Anyway so, after I brokedown my laptop, soaked the graphics card in bleach, checked the firewalls, ran about three scans…hahaha

    • Animal Driller says:

      Was it worth it?

    • ZombieApocalypse - wearing a soiled and blood soaked ~I ♥ Bloggy~ t-shirt says:

      I gotta say, you’re a braver soul than I – and I’m on a Mac!

      While at work, at least. Ex-pee is my game console,
      Ubuntu gets it done at home. Even still, I'm not brave enough
      to access random clickies with URL's like that.
  15. efra says:

    so this is what xcode iphone sdk means by uiTouch Event!

  16. Mike Hunt says:

    Oh my god…

  17. ZombieApocalypse - wearing a soiled and blood soaked ~I ♥ Bloggy~ t-shirt says:

    Oh yes, there’s an app for that. ;)

  18. lameo says:

    They always find me either way.

  19. I_HAVE_AIDS_LOL says:

    im posting this on a forum on kongregate

  20. Analrapist says:

    Show me on the map where he touched you.

  21. Jeff says:

    In Soviet Russia, Sex Offenders track YOU!!!

  22. kurter says:

    that should deff be a win!!

  23. GordonFreeman says:

    Strangely enough, I actually have this app. :P

  24. loser says:

    I hate you all.

  25. brian says:

    NOT SAFE! NOT SAFE!

  26. tenesha says:

  27. blondoO says:

    sexoffneders :) )..fail

  28. Haley says:

    If only this didn’t have “fail” written on it, then it could be worthy of a digg

  29. Mr.Red says:

    Actually this reminds me of Dane Cook’s preformance. He had this theme about watchdog.org or something and like “if you go on this site a sex offender in your building going to open a window and yell “He knows! The guy in 2B He knows!”" XD

  30. hgh for sale says:

    leave him if he is a post main or Gardner

  31. Funny videos says:

    While at work, at least. Ex-pee is my game console,
    Ubuntu gets it done at home. Even still, I’m not brave enough
    to access random clickies with URL’s like that.
