No I read them, I just was drunk at the time I signed up for my first gmail account
But in all honesty, what are the odds that they have people who get paid to do nothing but sift through the email and read them? I could see having a couple employees there, but, just the sheer volume of emails day in and day out, there really is a small chance that they will read yours.
But, just because it's in their Terms of Service does not make it legal. There are many company's, especially hosting company's, that have illegal things in their TOS. I know a few people that have sued a few smaller company's and won because of an illegal term that the company was depending on. In some states one illegal clause wipes out the whole contract. In other's, just that clause.
