Greg, can you guarantee a 3yr commitment not to reverse that policy?

I would hate for a new political administration (or a new upper management
team) to suddenly yank that rug out from under an app.  This has happened
before (paypal, akamai).

Hi Jeff,

Unfortunately I can't guarantee it.  I can say that there is a 90 day
change window to our terms of service OR if you sign up for a Premier
account with an offline contract the Acceptable Use Policy is valid for the
term of your contract (which is typically 12 months).

I wish I could promise better than that but unfortunately all I can commit
to is what we are contractually obligated to do for the reason you noted.

No on page level caching. We are focused on static content delivery,
video transcoding  streaming.

I lost the thread where someone said these changes were coming to other
parts of Google.

 

Apparently this isn't System wide YouTube kicked my video of a fully
clothed 20 year old girl eating a popcicle in 3d which was used in a
broadcast TV commercial so the FCC was ok with it, but Youtube wasn't.

I was wondering when someone was gonna notice.  This was not a mistake.  The
new policy does not prohibit pornography nor gambling.  The policy was
written to disallow illegal activities but to be flexible in terms of the
sorts of businesses people are trying to build.  While you need to talk to
your own lawyers about the legality of the business you build, pornography
as a whole is no longer disallowed from acceptable use.
