Gmail didn’t exist until 2004 or so. Google back then was a search engine in 1998 so there’d be no need for an "account"in the sense it’s used today. I mean, they’re probably not wrong claiming they have a Google account old enough to be legal since it’d only need to be from 2008 to be 18, and there was Gmail, YouTube, and Android (later on) by then.

Probably bots trying to trick people into thinking it’s absurd and bad and all that.

Considering YT didn’t even start until 2005, I call BS 😁. Not to mention I don’t think they would’ve had accounts from the get go unless you wanted to upload videos.

Lol, piracy, the logical solution.

Just setting up the OS you can toggle a lot of the things off, I don’t know why you’d leave those enabled in the first place! That and disable several more optional services too once in the desktop in settings. Though 11 is a resource hog, it’s quick to undo it-not that I’m defending MS.
