This is hosted on Blogspot, so I don't think the author has the authority to permit or deny people access to that computer. Surely it's entirely within Google's gift. http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/ http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/ That said, I can't actually see where they authorise access, only that they tell us not to misuse. Though they do give an example: "don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method other than the interface and the instructions that we provide." which might imply that accessing them through the provided interface, and not interfering is OK.
