Stupid idea which kids will get around in 5 seconds and will lock unwilling or unlucky adults out.

And they’re now expanding it to search engine logins.

It’s destroying everyone but the ones who benefit.

I really wish I’d had the time and energy to degoogle and had never started using cloud storage. I’m going to have to back up all of my photos in case I lose access when I refuse to hand over my ID. (Which I should have already done.)

I also really should have switched to Duck Duck Go ages before this

Not a good thing in Australia :/

It’s a shame that sun umbrellas and sun visors aren’t more normalised here like in Asia
