What happens if you promote Multi Level Marketing using Mailchimp

Google Adwords sent out their interest-based advertising policy update today. It included that the content of the ad cannot be related to the following topics:

Personal hardships related to relationships (example: bereavement products or services)
Personal hardships related to abuse and trauma (examples: domestic abuse shelters or victim advocate services)
User identity related to marginalised groups (examples: immigration services or legal services for refugees)
User identity related to transgender identification (examples: information about gender transitioning or transgender discrimination lawyers)

This reminded me of a question I recently had from a person that was an affiliate marketer (i.e. the person promoted certain services and products in order to earn a commission). The person wanted to contact their social network using Mailchimp in order to promote the services that would earn him a commission.

In the Mailchimp Acceptable Use Policy it’s clear that Mailchimp can’t be used to promote certain activities and industries. Included are the following (my comments in italics):

Emails offering to sell illegal goods or services
Pornography/sexually explicit content
Escort and dating services
Pharmaceutical products (read the article about Paul Le Roux to know why these are prohibited by Mailchimp).
Work from home, make money online, and lead generation opportunities
Gambling services or products
Multi-level marketing (e.g. Amway and Herbalife).
Affiliate marketing

Mailchimp is effective in identifying accounts that breach their acceptable use policy (likely using Omnivore). Mailchimp suspends or closes accounts that are in breach.
