Times simular to your exaggeration will come and people will say "But it's their service! If you want to use it, you have to follow their rules". Not understanding that they're slowly handing over control over their lives because we live in a modern time where everything is about technology. Sad to see how many people don't understand this and disagree with me when I say that I'm infuriated over this.

I understand that Google already has my phone number. That's not so much of a problem for me. I am trying to limit the amount of personal information that I hand out to websites & services. I believe that companies shouldn't need my personal phone number to create, maintain or secure my account. If I need security, I'll install 2FA TOTP. If not, that's still my decision and I shouldn't be forced. Especially not in form of having to provide my phone number.

 

As title says. I haven't used my Google account for more than 3 months. Prior to abandoning my Google account, I unlinked my phone number, deleted my recovery email, and logged out every device. I also never had 2FA TOTP setup.

Today I tried logging in and it won't let me. See video. Apparently, providing my login credentials doesn't prove that the account belongs to me. And no, I won't give them my phone number again to login.

I hate Google

Twitter users baiting other people into liking their post by lying that there's a new like animation.

I initially only installed "Comodo Firewall" but for some reason they also installed a "Comodo Dragon Browser", which I did not consent to. I always choose the "advanced" installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won't be able to uninstall the software..

He kinda looks like that puppet from Five Nights at Freddy's

 

I just lost 44 GB of data that I downloaded in the past two hours. My PC started to get laggy and it got stuck so I just shut it down believing that all will be well since the data has already been written to disk..

 

Been trying to submit a ticket to Mojang for weeks now, still doesn't work. Anyone else having the same issue?

Happy to see him get the recognition he deserves

This appreciation post is dedicated to Rockstar Games for pulling Grand Theft Auto San Andreas ($10) off of Steam only to then slap a ENB mod on it and sell it for $60 calling it "Definitive Edition"

 

Especially the Google one
