Why in the world does this page require me to login?
- sathyabhat 15y agoIt doesn't require a login to see the page.
- GvS 15y agoIt asked me to login too.
- jmettes 15y agoYou do have to log-in to share/connect to a remote desktop session. It seems to be utilising Google talk gadget (https://talkgadget.google.com/talkgadget/blank https://talkgadget.google.com/talkgadget/blank), this is probably why it requires a Google account.
- obeattie 15y agoIt did for me. It required me to verify my Google password just to get to the Chrome Store. It does often.
- gojomo 15y agoThis page has the 'Google Groups disease' that's rapidly spreading across Google's services. If you are completely logged-out of Google, you can access it. But let's say you have a login elsewhere with Google - perhaps even one still good enough to retain your search prefs, and offer instant access to other services requiring login. Still, visiting certain other pages, like this one and before it Google Groups 'public' archives, triggers a request to login. Annoying and kind of creepy/bossy: "either reconfirm who you are on demand, even when visiting 'public' pages, or you have to log out of all our services".
