To use Google messages you must sign in to one of your google accounts, even though that was not a requirement until today that I know of or was aware of.

    Ok try me…I’m not a a superficial script kiddy. The reason for bundling is not mere coincidence or convenience for the user. The reason is to provide a monopoly for Google. I didn’t complain until now because I’ve never been asked to login with my google account to use sms and now I am being asked for that. Meaning that they are trying to connect my conversations with my identity. First let us provide you with an sms client that never fails, if it fails, just download the system again and it’s fixed! Surprise! We’re training a war robot in Chinese thanks to your Chinese conversations for the past 5 years! Oh and here’s the cheapest BBQ…you keep talking to your dad about BBQ and his bday is Saturday and we know you’re a cheapskate…but lol actually it’s 5% higher price, we just show you 10% higher prices for everything else except for the BBQ you looked at on Firefox like 10 times before… Gemini takes screenshots and tells us what you see in words.

    Their monopoly is evil. But you can easily explain to me that it is for my convenience actually. What a fucking dummy I am! Ofcourse! But how come they didn’t bundle Pac-Man!? I wish packman was bundled so I could play it and it would never fail.
