So now I'm objectionable?

If you're reading this post, then you saw the message on the way in:
Some readers of this blog have contacted Google because they believe this blog's content is objectionable. In general, Google does not review nor do we endorse the content of this or any blog. For more information about our content policies, please visit the Blogger Terms of Service.

Really?

Naturally Google doesn't tell me what's wrong. They don't send me an e-mail and point to what is supposedly objectionable. No, I just get this ambiguous blockade on the front of my blog. So who's complaining?

90% of my blog traffic comes from image searches via various engines. Some from links from chat boards. And some from websites that link me through the Rule 5 framework. If you look at my "followers" section to the right, you'll see only 7 members to this blog and I think only four of those are actually active.

So I don't think there is anyone coming here who didn't know what they were going to find when they got here. And this isn't exactly the Hustler online magazine here. Let's take a look at a few things from my stats area:

The current top ten search terms when I logged on were:
miley cyrus uncensored
adrianne palicki hot
jordan carver bikini
lovelace
mary katherine ham swimsuit  wtf?!
miley cyrus nipple
amber heard ass
anna faris
christina model
danica mckellar butt

Doesn't look like folks are trying to find bible quotes or deep philosophical ruminations here, know what I mean?

Last month's top ten posts were:
here's something we don't see enough of -- emma watson in a bikini
al gore = still pathetic -- katy perry's bikini bottoms fall off
so what do i think of penny dreadful -- eva green nude
because celebs say the stupidist things -- scarlett johanssen in a bikini
bikinis still > jennifer nicole lee -- various jnl swimsuit malfunctions
anastasia ashley just got my attention -- anastasia's si pictures
daily duffster -- hilary duff in a bikini
rule 5 sunday: girls behaving badly -- catfight images
think i'll pass on lovelace -- amanda seyfried screen caps
sydney leathers got that shovel -- sydney leathers topless bikini pics

So I'm just not getting it. I find it sort of odd that this cropped up after last night's Rule 5 Monday post. Was it the images of Shannon Elizabeth? Or the fact that I mentioned Chloe Grace Moretz? I received a DMCA notice a few years ago that seemed to have been prompted because I simply mentioned Adele in post about her flaming hypocrisy.

I'm going to contact Google about this, but I doubt I'll get any sort of satisfactory answer. Until then, this is me giving them the finger.

May be, we know how those lefties are.

Changing the blog settings to "mature" seems to have appeased google for the moment.

Hateful rhetoric directed towards conservatives = okay . . . sexy girls = objectionable.

Go figure.

The only objectionable thing I have found on this blog are the occasional little blurred out squares...

Damn that gaussian blur! lolz!

Interestingly enough, the blog hits doubled between yesterday and today. So I'm thinking tagging this as a "mature" content blog is sort of like pouring sugar on the ground to keep bugs away from your picnic.

heh
