Google thinks that consumer harm or the potential for consumer harm is too risky at this time. This move follows a similar move by Facebook. Google makes a lot of money off revenue off of advertisements so Google has to maintain a good clean advertising structure. In my opinion this is the right move.

    This is just stupid. This is what you call controlling the people.

    I think that the reason Google banned Bitcoin is the lack of regulation means that sites can claim to be selling bitcoin only to be a fraud. Steve Wozniak lost $70,000 to a fraud bitcoin site.

    No, Steve Wozniak got his fiat currency stolen, not his Bitcoin. Steve Wozniak sold his Bitcoin and then the person did a charge back on him saying his card was stolen. Steve Wozniak's issue has zero to do with any needed regulations on Bitcoin.

    Censorship in general has relegated humanity into politically correct imbeciles. I'm not playing that stupid game. If you're acting like an idiot you deserve to know. And Google...you need to know!

    Same company.
    Google has overstepped a lot...but it’s their company and in the end they will just end up driving people away.
