Comment Re:Prohibited Actions (Score 2, Informative) 612

I think you missed the parents point, no human has to read your mail to do those things. Google already has an image search which can filter out mature content, if they compare the md5 of your attachment to the images they've already flagged as mature they could identify you as a porn. The point is that "Transmit content that may be harmful to minors" is a very low standard and it's not clear how actively google will enforce the prohibited actions


Here's the complete list:

In addition to (and/or as some examples of) the violations described in Section 3 of the Terms of Use, users may not:
