Google

Google just asked me to give them my mobile number as extra 'security' logging into my blog. Like my blog needs to be protected with high security!  What is the worst that could happen? Someone logs in and posts something that is not true so the 2 or 3 people who look at it think it is me (or not depending on what is posted) - and then I just log in and delete it and tell the 3 people that it was not me...

Why does google want my mobile number anyway?????

Is it something to do with their new patented 'background' noise target advertising?

Is not the PC mic and camera enough for google - that they want to spy on me through my phone as well?

So - basically - I log in to write a blog post to my family and google wants to bug my phone so they can advertise stuff to me more effectively. Like that is ok!!

I say no google! NO NO NO!   I may have to move my blog...
