It’s been some years that I am not able to log in to my Google account, because I stopped using it for a very long time any Google product, and now even providing my password, they say they can not know if it is me or now…
They send me to this support page which seems like I have lost my account with all the data and stuff I had from when I was younger…
I don’t think this is normal or ethic to do (I know Google has been never ethic), but this makes me so angry because I never wanted to lose all that data…
Do they basically know every people networks? And if you don’t let them know… you lose access to Google? … 😠
I never used Reddit… xD
And I always called my Wi-Fi networks as the same from years ago, this way my family always can get in without asking me the password. Now the permanent name will be something to make it cool with that ugly suffix… 🤮
EDIT:
_nomapis Google and_optoutfor Microsoft? WTF → https://superuser.com/questions/1005235/wi-fi-opt-out-microsoft-googleYeah… WTF indeed. Its not talked about a whole lot, and only the most active privacy folks (like me, shameless) took steps like that early.
Is is too late to add _nomap _output to my SSID these days?
Probably, if you have lent out your WiFi graciously to any Apple/Google device. But you could deny mapping now, better late than never.
I just hid and renamed the ssid for now. I’ve read somewhere that google now only maps ssids when you enable location awareness on your phone. This is from 2022 -> https://www.howtogeek.com/788837/your-wi-fi-info-is-in-google-and-microsofts-databases-should-you-care/
