Η Google αφαιρεί από το Play Store adblock εφαρμογές
Η Google αφαιρεί από το Play Store adblock εφαρμογές που εμποδίζουν διαφημίσεις όπως το Adblock Plus, AdBlocker, AdAway και AdFree με την αιτιολογία ότι παραβιάζουν τα terms of service.
Σύμφωνα με το συγκεκριμένο τμήμα των terms of service λοιπόν :
4.4 Prohibited Actions. You agree that you will not engage in any activity with the Market, including the development or distribution of Products, that interferes with, disrupts, damages, or accesses in an unauthorized manner the devices, servers, networks, or other properties or services of any third party including, but not limited to, Android users, Google or any mobile network operator. You may not use customer information obtained from the Market to sell or distribute Products outside of the Market.
Η ομάδα του Adblock Plus αντιδρώντας στην κίνηση της Google θα συνεχίσει να προσφέρει δωρεάν την εφαρμογή της από την ιστοσελίδα της εδώ.
Παρακάτω και το email που έστειλε η Google στους developers των εφαρμογών:
This is a notification that your application, [redacted], has been removed from the Google Play Store.
REASON FOR REMOVAL: Violation of section 4.4 of the Developer Distribution Agreement.
After a regular review we have determined that your app interferes with or accesses another service or product in an unauthorized manner. This violates the provision of your agreement with Google referred to above.
All violations are tracked. Serious or repeated violations of any nature will result in the termination of your developer account, and investigation and possible termination of related Google accounts. If your account is terminated, payments will cease and Google may recover the proceeds of any past sales and/or the cost of any associated fees (such as chargebacks and transaction fees) from you.
If your developer account is still in good standing, you may revise and upload a new instance of the application that is compliant with the developer terms. Before uploading any new applications, please review the Developer Distribution Agreement and Content Policy.
If you feel we have made this determination in error, you can visit this Google Play Help Center article for additional information regarding this removal.
