Google hypocritically flags Fleksy keyboard for mature content over 🖕 emoji

The popular Android keyboard app Fleksy was recently forced by Google to bump its Play Store rating to PEGI 16/Teen for "mature content." The content in question is apparently the middle finger emoji. This decision by Google stinks of hypocrisy, given that its own Android software keyboard Gboard includes the same emoji, and manages to finagle a PEGI 3/E rating on the Play Store.

This tale of double standards was first told earlier today by TechCrunch and includes details provided by the independent developers of the Flexky keyboard.
