For reasons that boggle my mind, I am required to keep a Google account for work (ties into some proprietary software the company uses)

Earlier today, I got the following -

Yes, I’m certain people under the age of 16 are known for their use of very specific EHR software that requires professional license to subscribe to in the first place. Makes perfect sense.

Anyone else get one of these “for you protection” msgs from Big evil?

        Really? That’s… astonishing.

        You know what? I hope they do that. So long as they give fair warning, so I don’t rock up to work one day and no longer have access to work files / OAuth / 2FA without warning.

        They send an email, I can escalate. Not my problem then.

      Right. Safe Search doesn’t matter because Google Search has been outclassed for a while now. There’s no drawbacks… other than the fact that apparently OP gets told about this every single day.

      That one Tech support who downvoted you. I mean yes it’s a headache for them but they should also make sure to have backup options for BYOD or whatever the f is in this case

      it could be passed down from your parents, fairly common to register emails for your unborn children, otherwise the cool ones might be taken by the time they are concieved and in need of an email. personally, i have reserved emails for many generations to come, my eventual grandchildren will have dope emails
