Here are the list of Policies & Principles, and if you can find anything that I say that might even remotely point towards violating any of this, please let me know! I know all my topics are controversial, but that is the government for you!
Illegal Activities
Do not use our products to engage in illegal activities or promote dangerous and illegal acts.
Malicious Products
Do not transmit viruses, malware, or any other malicious or destructive code. Do not distribute content that harms or interferes with the operation of the networks, servers, or other infrastructure of Google or others.
Hate Speech
Do not distribute content that promotes hatred or violence towards groups of people based on their race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation/gender identity.
Personal and Confidential Information
Do not distribute other people’s personal and confidential information, such as credit card numbers, confidential national ID numbers, or account passwords, without their permission.
Account Hijacking
Do not access another user’s account without their permission. Do not use our products for phishing scams.
Child Safety
Do not distribute content that exploits children, such as child pornography (including cartoon child porn) or content that presents children in a sexual manner.
Spam
Do not spam, including sending unwanted promotional or commercial content, or unwanted or mass solicitation.
Do not aggressively add people to your circles.
Ranking Manipulation
Do not manipulate ranking or relevancy using techniques like repetitive or misleading keywords or metadata.
Sexually Explicit Material
Do not distribute content that contains nudity, graphic sex acts, or sexually explicit material. Do not drive traffic to commercial pornography sites.
Your Profile Picture cannot include mature or offensive content. For example, do not use a photo that is a close-up of a person’s buttocks or cleavage.
Harassment and Bullying
Do not harass or bully others. Anyone using Google+ to harass or bully may have the offending content removed or be permanently banned from the site. Online harassment is also illegal in many places and can have serious offline consequences.
Violence
Do not distribute depictions of graphic or gratuitous violence.
Impersonation or Deceptive Behavior
Do not use our products to impersonate.
User Profile Name
To help fight spam and prevent fake profiles, use the name your friends, family or co-workers usually call you. For example, if your full legal name is Charles Jones Jr. but you normally use Chuck Jones or Junior Jones, either of those would be acceptable.
Regulated Goods and Services
While Google+ is a place to discuss many topics, our service is not ready to support the marketing of any regulated products at this time. Do not facilitate the promotion or sale of pharmaceuticals, alcohol, tobacco, fireworks, weapons, or health/medical devices. We may also remove content that offers or promotes the sale of substances that mimic the effects of illegal or regulated drugs.
Discussion of gambling and gaming strategy is permitted, but do not distribute content that facilitates actual gambling, including online casinos, sports betting, or lotteries.
Further, we may not allow verification of local Google+ pages for certain products and services such as escort services or other regulated goods.
Contests and Promotions
Do not run contests, sweepstakes, daily deals, coupons or other such promotions directly on Google+. For additional details about this policy, visit the Contests and Promotions Policy page.
Very sad and depressed,
Emily
