I used most of Google's services. I thought they were great, but them I met a neighbour of mine that held such hatred toward them that I could only describe it as visceral. He told me a story of how he used Gmail, Docs, chat, Blogger, but as a director YouTube was the most important. One day his account was locked. Google decided he had used YouTube inappropriately and suspended his account. No recourse, no remedy, but more importantly his data and online identity were instantly gone. And then I thought about it, what if it happened to me? And that was the end of the Google for me, death to my Apple ecosystem, and hello DNS registrations and safety deposit boxes with the backups of my data. SaaS is a Chinese Finger trap though, so the further you are in....

Very important lesson in not connecting your google products

Which doesn't work so well when Google keeps pushing consolidation down your throat. I never wanted my accounts merged, but they went ahead and did it anyway.

I know. Right?

It connected mine and my kid's school account together because same browser was used to login to those accounts.

I have come to the conclusion that Google is evil. It can't chose to not do evil anymore.
