I seriously hope they don't start enforcing T&Cs in the same way AdSense does.
When my company ran AndAppStore our AdSense account was terminated and we weren't given any details about any allegations of wrong doing let alone being any kind of proof that we had actually broken the T&Cs. If Google started to act that way in Market I'm pretty sure we'd see a drop off in developer interest because it's just too risky to develop for a platform where you could see your app thrown out of market for an unknown reason and not be given details about what you're suppose to have done wrong. AdSense gets away with it because it has a de-facto monopoly on advertising for sites & apps produced by smaller developers (especially now Google owns AdMob), so people don't want to risk their future chances of getting an AdSense account on another project. Android doesn't have that luxury. Al. On 30 Dec 2010, at 20:56, Maps.Huge.Info (Maps API Guru) wrote: > Just because Google hasn't acted on a terms violation doesn't mean > that they never will.
