User gets ominous Gemini policy-violation warning from Google with zero explanation
kingslyj · x · 2026-10-26
ArtemR received multiple alarming Google notifications claiming his Gemini usage violated policies — "interfering with or disrupting Google's services or infrastructure" — and that repeat offenses could cost him access to services and content. He was driving at the time and not using Gemini, and the email gave no specifics about what triggered it. He says the opaque, unappealable risk to his entire Google account is reason enough to stop using Gemini permanently, highlighting concerns about AI-driven enforcement without transparency or appeal.
