Technology and Health = NYC Iphone Condom App

The article "NYC launches iPhone condom-finder app" describes how today, it is important to respond to issues such as sexual health. In response to this issue, NYC has created an iphone application that locates a nearby place where they distribute free condoms. This app may increase the number of people who have protected sex in thus reducing the risk of acquiring an STD. I think that this app may be useful especially to teens who may not have money to purchase condoms. It is also helpful in reducing amount of teen pregnancies. What do you think?? Will this app cause an uproar from parents? Is this app essentially promoting sex?
