Title: Problems with YT and GMail, help!
Post by: mr.WHO on September 26, 2011, 06:48:06 am
Hi, some time ago YouTube somehow merged YT account with Google Accounts. This cause some problem for me:

When I log into YT accout it automatically log me into my Gmail accout, so when I go into GMail it open my mail accout without need for password & login which is serious security issue for me. I have a choice to either:
-log it and log out from YT accout every time I want to post commnet or thumb up.
- resign from it and only watch as anonymous - the problem is that more and more YT movies require to confirm your age or "contain the content that may disturb you so you need to log in".

Seriously that Google everything fusion start to driving me mad  :mad:  :hopping:  :mad2:  :banghead:  :nono:
I start to feel like in f'n Orwell's word with Google as Big Brother.

My question is:
Is it possible to log into YT without logging into Gmail/Google in the same time?
Creating another mail for YT won't work for me coz I'd still have to log out to log into my true mail accout.

I *think* there's an option somewhere in gmail or google accounts to log off when the browser window is closed. Or alternatively, if you're really worried about security, have whatever browser you're using remove all cookies and temp files upon close, that *should* do it as well.
