Missile, Chemical and Biological Weapons Developers: Google App Engine Is Not For You

A lightning post to highlight a recent change to the Google App Engine Terms of Service.

Clause 2.2 just had some text added to it:

“You agree not to use the Service in the design, development, production, or use of missiles or the design, development, production, stockpiling, or use of chemical or biological weapons.”

I’m glad they cleared that up - now all the bad guys know to use Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure.

P.S I can’t help feeling the irony, given the App Engine logo…
