Can it do anything at all when Google bans your account?
- aviraldg 14y agoYes, you can either create a new account, or put it into developer mode and install another OS on it.
- thewordis 14y agoGoogle banned how many accounts, in total? Do we have any numbers or statistics? I can't put the threat in context without knowing its prevalence.
- ANTSANTS 14y agoI'm not sure how you can tolerate even the possibility of being banned from a computer that you own and payed for.
- rbanffy 14y agoRelax. This is no Surface. You can create another account or flip the developer switch and install your own OS on it. It should run Ubuntu (for ARM) just fine.
- rplnt 14y agoI've read a lot about AdSense account bans. Or do they only ban the account for this service and the rest is left intact?
- RexRollman 14y agoI think that is a fair criticism. I can't think of another OS where you can't create a local user account without internet access.
- watty 14y agoSure, just create a new account (they're free).
- mtgx 14y agoI haven't used ChromeOS in a while, but I remember you could use it without a Google account. You won't have access to the Chrome webstore without one, though, but you should be able to use it as a normal browser.
