"Bollocks" in Britain and "Balls" in North America both refer to the Testes, as does "cojones". So all three statements are actually the exact same slang in regional dialects.

Bollocks, like many slang words, have multiple meanings in different contexts. It can be used as you stated as well, but "What you said is bollocks" and "You have bollocks for saying it" are very different statements.

This has been happening for years and years. It's their method of preventing people from spamming you unsolicited.

Rule number one: back up things you don't want to lose.

You've got it backwards. They built Gmail as a fun project to improve a product in an area they didn't specialize in, then worked the ads in after the fact to monetize when it became popular.

What the original author failed to mention (or likely never bothered to find out) was it's not simply 3 friends, but instead 3 friends from distinct social circles, possibly with a minimum mutual friend requirement or more.

When you choose the you're friend you want to verify, it dramatically limits the choice pool for the next two, meaning you can't pick 3 mutual friends, you need to pick yourself, their friend from back in college you don't know, and their sister. Harder to do than get any three friends to play a prank.
