> Google (Robot): We'll take your extension down
Me: Hey, this must be a mistake
> Google (Robot): No mistake, review these policies, your extension violates one of them
Me: It does not violate any of them, this is a mistake!
> Google (Finally human): Oh, sorry, a mistake.
Obviously someone just needs to create a robot that automatically replies to the takedown notices and disputes them, thus closing the loop!
- black_puppydog 6y agoI had the same reaction. But then the individual programmer/founder won't risk their robot messing this up, while for google it's a numbers game. Also, someone would have to program that bot and can you even imagine how dead inside you'd feel if that was your life?
- thanksforfish 6y agoUsing AI to suggest a reply or to use human approval seems like a low risk approach. Would you feel dead inside if your tool helped developers keep their projects online? Sounds rewarding to fight the big guy and keep cool projects online.

- dade_ 6y agoSomehow I expect that using a bot against their bot violates user TOS part #63836370 section YQ, and they will immediately lock your accounts, associated business accounts, delete the data and offer zero recourse.
