2.3 You may not use the Services and may not accept the Terms if (a) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Google, or <--------- Just read that half the other part isn't important

(b) you are a person barred from receiving the Services under the laws of the United States or other countries including the country in which you are resident or from which you use the Services"
From google terms of service

Funny thing is

"Q: How old must you be to form a valid contract?

A: In most jurisdictions you must be the age of majority (18) to form a valid contract unless the agreement is for necessities. Necessities may include food and clothing. Depending on state law, under some special circumstances a minor may be bound by a contract. However, usually a contract made by a person under the age of majority is voidable at the will of the minor."

So technically its illegal to use google if your under 18. I guess most of America is breaking the law.

I don't think "Services" applies to Google Search. They should warn you, or at least make the TOS more visible, beforehand.

'Your use of Google’s products, software, services and web sites (referred to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services provided to you by Google under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and Google. “Google” means Google Inc., whose principal place of business is at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States. This document explains how the agreement is made up, and sets out some of the terms of that agreement."

That would include google search too

Probably because you can search for pornography. Other than that I see no reason why this should exist. Also, they probably don't care if you're under 18. It's probably there just so they don't get in trouble or something.

Pretty random, but that's really funny. I guess I'll have to wait another year 'til I can use Google search... :mad088:

Or we could just be sent to the moon.
You don't want to be sent to the moon. Eor is the king of the moon and he will enslave you and make you work in the mines digging for moon mushrooms. Why would you even mention that.

The government wouldn't waste time making enough jail space (or moon space) for all of us. Haven't you heard? Their depopulation plot is already in effect. You're goin' to the gas chambers, maaaaaaaaan.

It's better than the meager, Google-less existence they have here on earth.

In before horrible holocaust joke that ends up closing the thread and the user being heavily infracted/banned.

But those rules is why I use Goggle Search.

That's actually pretty funny- is it the same on the likes of Yahoo?

Also, who here doesn't/ didn't use Ask Jeeves for Kids for their search engine? Crazy Jeeves and his funny hats.

I'm just waiting for WMG to ban people from searching the word 'music' on Google though :ohwell:.

“Google” means Google Inc.

Don't forget YouTube.. The site's owned by Google inc. too if I'm not horribly wrong.
