First of all, where has the old I.T tech questions section gone?
Something came up today and I was at the point of registering for a Google account but backed off at the last moment. I have always resisted registering as I have a deep, yet probably unfounded, suspicion that doing so will unlock Pandora's box and allow unfettered access and intrusion in to my private life and my family's web browsing.
Am I right to be suspicious or am I worrying about nothing? What are the advantages of registering (I just wanted to download some fun/addictive game apps that a family member showed me) and what are the pitfalls (there must be some)?
Any advice from fellow CC'rs will be gratefully received.
