A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I’d argue the bigger moral is that you should always own your online identity. You should buy your own domain (
@yourname.xyz
or something like that) and make your email on that. So if Google bans you, you just switch email providers and keep your address.I've been using @fixnum.org and since a few years the alias @wim.land to do exactly this, but that's just email.
My app purchases, photo storage, and YouTube account are all entangled in this. I could decouple from Google, but it would be very painful.
