Ask HN：如何申诉被拒绝的 Google 扩展程序？
2 分•作者: modzu•21 天前
我向 Google Chrome 网上应用店提交了一个扩展程序（一个广告拦截器）。
Google 以牵强的理由一再拒绝我的扩展。第一次被拒的理由是“垃圾信息”。当我申诉时，审核结果变成了它包含“附加功能”，因为它“修改网络流量”。当然了，它就是这么做的！当我询问审核员如何在不使用“declarativeNetRequest”的情况下实现广告拦截的既定功能时，我只收到了同样的套话式回复。
我提交了一个全新的更新，简化了代码，并添加了注释，以及引用了其他使用完全相同机制的开源项目。结果再次被拒绝。在这次申诉中，我请求将此案升级给一位高级审核员，希望能得到更具上下文的回复。结果是同样的套话式回复和拒绝。
我忍不住认为 Google 有某种内部政策，故意刁难广告拦截器。对我来说，很明显所谓的拒绝理由并不成立（请注意，我并非初次涉足此事——我已有几个扩展程序发布多年，拥有数千用户），但我从未遇到过如此的阻碍。
这真是一个令人遗憾的局面，尽管并非完全出乎意料。说实话，我很惊讶 Google 还没有正式出台禁止广告拦截器的政策。但他们并没有这样做——显然，网上应用店里还有其他广告拦截器，而这正是令人沮丧的地方。
总之，各位开发者。你们是否遇到过类似的情况？你们是如何解决的？谢谢！

I submit an extension (an adblocker) to Google Chrome's web store.<p>Google keeps rejecting it for dubious reasons. The first rejection was claim it was "spam". When I appealed, the review came back that it contained "additional functionality" because it uses "modifies network traffic". Well of course it does! When I asked the reviewer how I could achieve the stated functionality of blocking ads without the use of "declarativeNetRequest" I simply received the same canned response.<p>I submit a totally new update that simplified the code and included comments, and references to other open source projecs that use the exact same mechanisms. Again it was rejected. On this appeal I asked if it could be escalated to a senior reviewer who could possibly reply with more context. Same canned response and rejection.<p>I can't help but think Google has some internal policy to give adblockers a runaround. It is obvious to me the stated rejections are not valid (Note that I'm also not new to this - I have several extensions that have been published for years with thousands of users) but have never encountered such gate-keeping before.<p>It's a sad state of affairs even if not totally unpredictable. To be honest I'm surprised Google hasn't made it an official policy to prohibit adblockers. But they haven't - obviously there are other adblockers published to the store, and that's what makes this so frustrating.<p>Anyway, fellow developers. Anyone run into a similar situation? And how did you resolve it? Thanks!
