Gist of Google policy-change!

• You don’t have to sign in. You can use YouTube, Search and other Google products even if you aren’t signed into your Google account. Of course, if you’re an avid Gmail user, that means you’d have to constantly be signing in and out. But hey, that’s the price you pay for “a better user experience.”
• If that sounds like a pain, just make separate accounts for each site.
• Google isn’t collecting any new information. It’s simply taking the information it was already gathering and consolidating it.
• It’s all in the name of simplicity. Google was a single search engine in 1998 and now it’s an Internet behemoth that has accrued more than “60 product-specific privacy policies.”
• Users can request Google delete their personal information from its archives after they’ve closed their accounts provided they’re willing to wait a “reasonable period of time,” whatever that means.
