Apple has covered San Francisco with iPad advertisements, giving one group of pranksters plenty of ammunition to tweak Steve Jobs over his anti-porn ways. The group, Freedom From Porn, is pasting alternate screen images over the ads to make it look like the iPad users are looking at adult websites, reports TechCrunch.

The images aren't explicit—making the satire even more insidious. A fake Facebook page from Steve Jobs, for example, shows several fake posts of porn vids, including one that "promises to change the way you masturbate," and comes complete with wall replies from the likes of Jenna Jameson and Ron Jeremy.
