I changed this to the Unity Apps lens, since this is actually the culprit here (I am presuming).

This is totally unacceptable for a piece of software aimed at the mass market, especially when the application menu is one of the main ways to interact with the OS and when Ubuntu is actively displaying information to me from the internet. If I had searched for an app to download and had seen this app, fair enough, but to display it on my application menu just because I have opened the menu is outragous. This is huge failure of governance for the Ubuntu team and is incredibly disappointing. Some filters need to be added to the list of applications that are displayed to prevent this from happenig again. The fact that an app, called pornview was allowed, beggars belief, it is not as if the app developer was trying to masquerade their app as something else. A huge, huge disappointment.
