Yeah they flip flop so much I get confused and have to worry about every platform.
I’m really confused about Gmail because they haven’t said anything but YouTube and Google signin are linked so I have no idea whether the email part is safe.

So … it gets worse. Apparently they’re quietly rolling out a porn ban, and part of that is that you won’t be able to “log in to a search engine” without verifying your age. As I understand it a YouTube account is kinda different from your google account but the same isn’t true for google search.
In the past I thought that even though I don’t like it, social media addiction is the issue of the decade. But half the issue is also digital privacy. This not only fails to meaningfully address social media addiction but it also actively worsens digital privacy. This whole crusade is counterproductive.
