I dunno. This bit:
"This is what I tried to explain in my opening arguments. Despite Google's objections to what they perceived to be technical violations of their AdSense terms of service, they also had an entirely separate (but confusingly similar-sounding) program called AdSense for Domains, which handled the exact problem I was trying to solve--that of using advertising to profit from "parked," or unused, domain names, much like putting a billboard on a vacant lot."
strikes me as his saying that he was actually quite aware why Google objected and terminated his account.
That, coupled with his arguing in court that Gee whiz, he was totally following the terms of service for a completely different service that he wasn't actually paying for just kills my sympathy for him.
Yes, Google should tell people why it terminates these accounts. On the other hand, this guy comes across as a domain-squatting asshat.

- ubernostrum 17y agoDo they have the right to breach contracts?
- Semiapies 17y agoI agree; I don't think his rights have been violated, though.
