Director says Facebook has been banned from Google +

Blake Ross, Firefox co-founder and current director of product management at Facebook, announced on his Twitter account That  + Google deleted Facebook Profile for allegedly "violating" their terms of service.

When trying to access their account on the social networking giant's new Web, Ross stumbled upon a message saying that "after an analysis of its profile," it was considered that its name violated the terms of the site.

"Google + banned me for having the audacity to call me Blake Ross? Or they want to ban all employees of Facebook? I smell fear, "Ross posted on his Twitter account on the site.

Two weeks after its launch, held in late June, Google + deleted a series of profiles that allegedly used names of celebrities or characters, which had the side effect of the exclusion of a legitimate series of profiles. It is not known, but where's the evil in the name of the executive.

Despite not having returned to talk about it, a Google search + shows that the profile of Ross is available for consultation. In his final post, dated the 5th of July, he asks Facebook members (ie everyone) give their suggestions about the features of G + which could be applied in "their" social network.
