1. Defamatory or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, or other targeted groups, particularly if the app is likely to place a targeted individual or group in harm's way. Professional political satirists and humorists are generally exempt from this requirement.
2. Realistic portrayals of people or animals being killed, maimed, tortured, or abused, or content that encourages violence. "Enemies" within the context of a game cannot solely target a specific race, culture, real government, corporation, or any other real entity.
3. Depictions that encourage illegal or reckless use of weapons and dangerous objects, or facilitate the purchase of firearms.
4. Overtly sexual or pornographic material, defined by Webster's Dictionary as "explicit descriptions or displays of sexual organs or activities intended to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings."
5. Inflammatory religious commentary or inaccurate or misleading quotations of religious texts.
6. False information and features, including inaccurate device data or trick/joke functionality, such as fake location trackers.
