Google API token isn't a thing easy to get. But some languagaes (Like .NET) have a real browser User-Agent, such as "Mozilla/5.0 (Firefox 3.0; X11)", other languges, like Python, you need to "hack" because user-agent is "Python/urllib2.0". Searching Google, sometimes maybe very util for some people. I think that putting a disclaimer in top of page is a nice solution. --[[User:Guga360|Guga360]]
: Normally, I'd be fine with hosting code that when used violates someone's TOS; The existence of the code isn't illegal in the country where RC is hosted (with the exception of copyright protection, DRM and the DMCA). The worst most entities can do is send me a DMCA notice (Which is easily attainable via WHOIS), I take down the code, and that's that. If ''Google'' gets upset with Rosetta Code, they can strike RC from their search index, and we lose 68% of our traffic and exposure. And, AFAIK, there's no recourse short of getting something like the Slashdot community up in arms. A DMCA notice is one thing; I can fight or fold. Getting dropped from Google's search index is rather like being cut off at the knees. --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 19:44, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
