So if you have a collection with political targets and the folder is just google maps links to their houses with their names as the bookmark name google shouldn’t be allowed to stop you from spreading this?

Sure google is shitty but this feature is designed to share links with other people and sometimes those links can be dangerous so imho it’s absolutely necessary to moderate them at some level.

Depends if it’s illegal or not. In your case it’s probably illegal.

In that case they deleted a link to illegal content in their jurisdiction - so should be fine - shouldn’t it?
