- JaVae, on 03/27/2008, -10/+584it's prolly just to cover themselves if any legal problems arise...
- choopie911, on 03/27/2008, -4/+540Yeah, cause we all know that when someone under 18 is asked "Are You Over 18" at a website, they always click no.
- Ozymandias42, on 03/27/2008, -10/+340So, schools had better ban Google.com, I suppose.
- Marmeladov, on 03/27/2008, -18/+273cool... nobody gives a damn.
- Equinox1, on 03/27/2008, -8/+208Who reads ToS agreements?
- SteveTheSultan, on 03/27/2008, -6/+205I hope I never have enough time to read the terms of service for google
- Whogie, on 03/27/2008, -1/+158Come to think if it, when you do press no, websites usually takes you to Google.
- kpaphysicist, on 03/27/2008, -43/+194Buried: Don't care.
- DCstewieG, on 03/27/2008, -1/+101I dugg you up then realized I should have buried you for saying "install Google."
- MajorApus, on 03/27/2008, -1/+86Blogspam is fail.
This is the user account TOS. You don't have to have an account to use google search and watch youtube videos.
By simply going to those sites you are not accepting this TOS. Also, the TOS in question CLEARLY states that any other TOS you accept for a specific "service" supersedes this TOS. So if this one says, 18, and youtube says 13, its not a contradiction, since the youtube TOS supersedes the one in question.
I wish there was a voting system where we could ban stupid people from the internet, - leonardoty, on 03/27/2008, -10/+95Until the Google police comes to my house and arrests me, I'll take my chances thanks.
- bjs3171, on 03/27/2008, -19/+96then why is the Adult Content Filter automatically turned on when you install Google?
- hadiz, on 03/27/2008, -1/+74No kids on youtube? We can only dream.
- fxu1989, on 03/27/2008, -0/+59Install Google ?
I thought it came with the Internet ... goddammit, now I gotta find the CDs. - serif69, on 03/27/2008, -0/+58That's not allowed either
- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -1/+51You know what? Mine actually does.
So I use 64.233.167.99 instead. Goes right through. - likwidfuzion, on 03/27/2008, -1/+49Can I get a side of Infinite Loop please?
- lijamez, on 03/27/2008, -0/+48Why don't you have a seat over there...
- bxblox, on 03/27/2008, -0/+43It works out for them, so now anytime they are blamed by some retard's parents for something they can just say he shouldn't have lied about his age.
- chanop, on 03/27/2008, -1/+41I remember back in the AOL days, when my parents would put me in the "teen" category and it would block "some" porn sites via the aol browser, but if you opened up IE you could still look at all the porn your heart could dream of.
- PhildoVT, on 03/27/2008, -12/+50Who. The. *****. Cares? First an article about Safari's terms of service on the front page and now this? Who diggs this *****?
- unclemeat, on 03/27/2008, -0/+35Haha, I know man.
On an entirely unrelated note, this Albanian lawyer keeps calling me and saying I've signed away my house, possessions and kidneys to some software company I downloaded something from. Huh. - chanop, on 03/27/2008, -4/+36me
- Sambora, on 03/27/2008, -1/+32And clearly much more mature.
- Sillva, on 03/27/2008, -2/+33Must be a new trend to read the terms...
Is this what happens when you reach the end of the internet? - TheSabre, on 03/27/2008, -1/+30That's ok. This Nigerian lawyer keeps emailing me telling me that I've been given $15 million by one of his clients in a will.
- Grimi, on 03/28/2008, -1/+29That would mean if you said no to being over 18 at Google it would take you to a porn site...
- samurimaster, on 03/27/2008, -1/+29Because they know that no one reads the ToS
- Teh_Shiz, on 03/27/2008, -0/+28Yeah right. Add "making a google search" of things to do on my 18th birthday
- davidlyness, on 03/27/2008, -3/+30New Google home page:
"Search, I am over 18 years of age" ... "I'm feeling lucky, I am over 18 years of age" ... "Exit" - snowpatrol, on 03/27/2008, -2/+29noobs...
- ep53, on 03/27/2008, -0/+26Drug videos? Im allways searching stuff about cocaine and exctasy on youtube....
- falkonv7l, on 03/27/2008, -18/+43AltaVista baby!
- hackntossh, on 08/27/2008, -0/+25In accordance with US law...minors under 18 can't enter into a legal agreement. I.E. the Terms of Service
- jabab, on 03/27/2008, -1/+25calm down dude
- Archer007, on 03/27/2008, -1/+241999 is calling...
- mtekk, on 03/27/2008, -0/+23It's not a law, it's a contract between you and Google, not you and your governmental oppressors.
- davidlyness, on 03/27/2008, -0/+22On Dig? Of course.
- barfooz, on 03/27/2008, -0/+22No, you're just younger than the vast majority of adults.
- Betrayer, on 03/27/2008, -0/+22its called CYA (cover your ass); just incase little bobby learns how to blow something up by watching it on google, the parents would be responsible for his actions not google.
this is a very good idea! - radu79, on 03/27/2008, -2/+24Judging by the quality of the comments on YouTube I'd say 90%+ of the users are under 15.
- falafelkiosken, on 03/27/2008, -1/+21isn't google the only page most schools haven't banned?
- choopie911, on 03/27/2008, -0/+18Yeah, the only time I see that being an issue is 1) nudity in imagesearch or 2) risqué videos/ drug videos.
- tdogg241, on 03/27/2008, -0/+18Me three! Ah, to be young and in love!
- RoshanK, on 03/28/2008, -0/+16you mean floppies
- tsdblog, on 03/27/2008, -0/+16Umm... The YouTube Terms of Service says different:
"...In any case, you affirm that you are over the age of 13, as the YouTube Website is not intended for children under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use the YouTube Website..."
http://www.youtube.com/t/terms - jesterrace, on 03/28/2008, -1/+17Install google????? what are you 75?
- masterofthebus, on 03/27/2008, -1/+17i really think it's over-rated... but how would google identify the person to see if he can look for 'sex videos' or not... and it's not everyone who desires a google account just to make a search... it's complicated
- tech42er, on 03/27/2008, -0/+15Reread that post and think about it. It's an asinine generalization that only makes you look like an immature kid.
- breckinshire, on 03/27/2008, -0/+15Ray, if someone asks you if you're a god, you say yes!
