On very short notice, Google bans most explicit materials from Blogger
(Google): https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/6170671?p=policy_update&rd=1
"Starting March 23, 2015, you won't be able to publicly share images
and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on
Blogger. Note: We'll still allow nudity if the content offers a
substantial public benefit, for example in artistic, educational,
documentary, or scientific contexts."

Google is clearly within its rights to do this. I am however
disappointed that *no explanation at all* -- zip -- is provided in
this announcement explaining the rationale for this sudden change of
policy on very short notice.
