Google will ask if you’re *sure* you want to disable it. Don’t buckle under the pressure!

1. Here's an easier way--make up a fake name and use it for your google account.

Then don't use google for ANYTHING that matters!

2. My Google account, like my Facebook account is full of inaccurate information.

The people that know me know what's true and the ones that don't-Fuck them.

The only reason I even have a google account is so that I can post on youtube.

8. READ POST #5

YouTube posts are part of the problem.

Just protect yourself best you can.
Just sayin...

9. My face is NOT on file and my name isn't the real one

12. EXACTLY!

They can force us to fill out the forms, but we don't have to tell the basstids the truth! I really think that Google needs more people like Henry DeEighth and Ivanna Hamsammich!

3. I can't imagine anybody wanting to use my image to advertise anything,

except as maybe a "before" picture for some kind of cosmetic product or plastic surgery. Nevertheless, I'll opt out just because I don't like the idea of being owned by the internet. Even though we are.

6. Agree. Same here. But I don't trust nor want someone putting my human face with a shitty product.

Opting Out Is Quick & Easy to do.
Protect yourself best you can.

4. Thx for the info. Will do. nt

5. Your Face and Name Will Appear in Google Ads Starting Today

Google's Going to Start Sticking Your Face and Name in Ads

(snip)...Ugh. Doing anything from leaving a YouTube comment to starring something in Google Play to giving it the +1 treatment will cause your face to show up on ads. (Users under 18, however, will not appear in ads.) Google is also somewhat vague about who will see your face: "So your friends, family and others may see your Profile name and photo, and content like the reviews you share or the ads you +1'd." Facebook, however, is less vague: "If you have selected a specific audience for your content or information, we will respect your choice when we use it."

(snip)...Obviously, Google wants to avoid the shitstorm that Facebook has endured, so they're trying to be better communicators. That doesn't detract from the fact that the search giant is going to start slinging your face and name all over the internet without your explicit consent. You'll be notified with some banner ads on Google's homepage before the new Terms of Service goes into effect on November 1. But it's up to you—and only you—to opt out if you don't like that.

7. No, they won't, because there are no photos of me

anywhere in Google or Facebook. Still, it's nasty that they do that.

10. They got me for using a false name...

can't post on u-tube is the only "disadvantage" I've noticed.

[MADem]

13. How would they know?

Was it an absurd name, like Ophelia Butt? Go with something simple, like Fred Jones!

[Earth Bound Misfit]

14. Something silly, similar to "Bill Ding" n/t

15. Well Finnegan, Begin Again!

Grab the phone book and open it and stab at a few names--you'll come up with something that will enable you to fly under their radar.

11. "Hey Shandris, why don't you use social media? EVERYONE uses social media!"

Sorry, Google, I don't buckle to social pressure and, even if people want to call me a Luddite to somehow try and 'shame' me for not caring about the narcissistic soul-sucking pit of despair and idiocy known as Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Snapchat, Vine, and Twitter and the like, I still won't. You and your ilk are the best friends of people who wish to do me harm, or at the very least are callously indifferent to my needs and struggles.

Ahem. Sorry about that, off my soap box now.

Very good information for those who will need it. Thank you, misterhighwasted.
