Google trying to force me to join Google Plus
3 comments
I was able to delete my google+ profile without deleting the associated gmail address, but I think they have some small text thing to never show the google+ set up thing again.
Google has gotten to be really annoying with this. That's why I have reverted to using Google only for search (I no longer have a Google account at all).
If you don't like their actions, then do what I did, and leave them.

Nobody is forcing you to use gMail.
Use something else - maybe a paid service where you then might (as a paying customer) have some influence over the offering.

I'm assuming that one of these days I'll click the "Yes" button by mistake, and after that there will be no going back. That is, if I want to delete my Google Plus account, I'll also have to delete Gmail.
Remember, Google got into trouble with Google Buzz for doing something related.
How does one stop Google from shoving Google Plus down our throats? Is a class action lawsuit possible here? I'd like to help with organizing a group to discuss this and get a mailing list going, depending on the interest level of course.
