Why has Google become so invasive of peoples internet activities and personal life ( well even more invasive than they were)
1) andriod phones automatically uploading pictures ive taken onto a google account i created a year or so ago and never used.......its killing my data usage on my phone, and also there are some pictures i've taken that i reeeeeallly don't wan't uploaded onto the internet for others to see, I don't remember asking them to do this
2) youtube, "you are about to make a comment on a video we will upload this comment onto your google acount" NOooooooo I don't wan't any of my mates knowing about my late night weird youtube video transitions of boredom.
So i thought id delete my google account, but in order to do that I need to delete everything associated with it including my andriod account which i have purchased things on, I'm guessing i loose out on re downloading items bought onto a new device if i do that

1.) goto settings, under account, select google, select google+, goto instant upload and turn it off.
2.) goto your youtube settings via web browser, account settings, sharing/privacy, and set your settings there.
Google is no more invasive than Apple or MS.

but you get a new phone and keep having to do this, because i have done all that before....They have no right to do it, if i didn't have a capped contract that could run me up a massive bill uploaded things i dont want uploading, it doesnt even ask me

That's like saying everytime you get a new computer, they should have all your old settings on the new one, which is actually possible if you are talking about the Chrome browser, but not the entire OS itself, buying a new phone is like buying a new computer these days, the point is that I have just helped you, just be glad somebody is willing to help.
