Will Google lock out this capability? "gvsms.com" shut down. about pygooglevoice HOT 3 CLOSED

I see they released an API at http://code.google.com/p/gvsms/. What they then 
did is
host a semi-commercial website which harness the Google Voice "APIs". The
semi-commercialism of the site for sure got them shut down by google being 
somewhat
against their ToS. A discussion of this API and Google's ToS in general is 
available
at http://serotoninstorm.com/2009/sep/16/hacking-away-at-voice/ 

In terms of use with pygooglevoice. As long as you are using the lib for
non-commercial, personal use then you are in the clear. What gvsms did was 
provide a
public facing service that interacted with the Google Voice services. If you are
using pygooglevoice for your own personal use (even in combination w/ a PBX) you
should be ok. 

The huge gray area of the Google Voice service is what you do with the actual 
service
itself and the legality varies from application to application. If you are 
wondering
whether google might have issue with your planned project, please contact me at
justquick on the gmails

Google did not shut them down. It is up.
