Illogical? William Shatner Gets Booted From Google+

Quote:
Actor and musician William Shatner has apparently had his Google+ account beamed up for ?violating standards?, according to a tweet posted earlier this morning. He who loves TechCrunch tweeted the following message to his followers:

?My Google+ account was flagged for violating standards. Saying hello to everyone apparently is against the rules maybe I should say goodbye??

Update: see, he?s back already. Can?t keep that man down.

Google+ is of course a brand new product, one that?s still in beta, so perhaps Google?s automated banning process is what got Shatner shunned from using the service. Florian Rohrweck, for one, believes a ton of users reporting Shatner?s profile as fake is what got the man suspended.

The actor himself hasn?t provided any details about the ban ? nor has Google, who we?ve contacted about this ? but I have a feeling that this was merely an anomaly and Shatner?s Google+ account will live long and prosper once it?s reinstated.
