Google Administer privileges on my computer? Nonsensical

So google can just do whatever it wants now? I have no choices besides google, so they can harvest all my information, turns off all my protection, antivirus, to leave me exposed with nothing but whatever they feel is acceptable, tracks everyone of my devices, has control over microphones and all cameras, you don't need that!, if I buy something im in charge of it, shouldnt be able to have admin. Priveledges like this, I mean you already do whatever you want have all the money and stuff you want you need my stupid little devices to be under your control! No sir, i'm done with google and your agenda. Brad wylie

Google On the net

I am writing, hoping to find someone there, who cares about how your members are treated by your employees. I have been harassed over the pass several months by some thug(s) on my phone.
I make strong political comments. However, these punks think that they are in charge the 1st amendment. News: They are not, and neither is Google. I have been interfered with in many, many ways while just using my email. I have caught them, while online. I made a remark and instantly I got colored lines on my phone that repair services said that they were caused by getting the phone wet. However, It happen 15 seconds right after I wrote a response to their actions, Also, many times I have been interfered with, redirecting several times on G-maps, sending e-mails and even shutting down my online connection many times. Last night I was on the phone line with a brilliant T-Mobile technician for an hour. His conclusion was outside interference.
I told him of my experience from your cruel thug(s) and he said that he hears that story all the time for both Yahoo and your company. He said that I should change to an IP unlocked phone. I am retired and on a fixed, modest income. I don't get $100 thousand a year to set and not do my job while harassing my customers.
I know that you have many, many employees and can't monitor them all, full time. However, you can set up to monitor several at a time at random. When they are caught then immediate firing. If they have broken laws, then full prosecution.
I am tired of the trash messing with me. That's not really my biggest concern. With today's multiple mass attacks, I worry that they will piss off the wrong person. Not being able to identify the real jerk he/she may harm some other Google employee(s), Real possibility. Don't take this as treat. Furthest thing from my mind. However, I do strongly believe in KARMA. What goes around comes around. I am simply warning you of a real possibility that Google would be responsible for failure to act.
I close now with a question in my mind? How many of these complaints have you received without acting?
Sincerely, Barry Fowler,
3650 Clairemont Dr #5b, San Diego, CA 92117, - [protected], - [protected]@gmail.com

Google Google f mountain view caus

I have a charge to my bank account for 60.27 that I have no idea why. I am very upset about this. How can you charge me and not tell me why? I expect your full cooperation and an answer in a timely manner. My name is Forrest. My number is [protected]. Why are you demanding 350 characters? The information I provided is all I have. I will go to my bank and have this charge blocked. I am disappointed that you have stolen my money. I thought you had more honor than that. I'm not done with this. I am going to share this theft with every platform possible.

Google Google hangout

I have someone who has blackmailed me through google hangouts. I archived the conversation so I can build a case against the person but the archived info has disappeared. This archived info has incriminating evidence against that person. My archived conversation only goes back until April 13th. Where has the conversation gone? This person who has blackmailed has taken over$100k from me. He's not an American and might be here illegally. I've asked for help from google and have gotten no response.

Google Unauthorized debit card charges

I signed up for a Google videos on youtube; however, after checking my statement balance, I noticed two things:

1. The most recent charges increased to 4 consecutive charges of $49.99

2. and that the charge category changed from household to none and that the billing was performed by Google*Youtube videos Mountain View, CA instead of the Google amphitheater.

I have attached a screen capture of these charges. In the meantime, I am going to contact my credit union. I would appreciate very much that these charges, which total $196.00, are credited back to my account.

Thank you for your time and effort. There appears to have been many complaints as I have seen posted online.

Sincerely, Ernest M. Rimanosky

Google pixel 4xl

I bought about 15 different google gadgets in google store over the past few years.

2 chrome casts were broken.
1 pixelbook was broken, they sent me to replace another one that did not have a touchscreen worked.
My pixel 4xl began to show 50% of the battery and will turn off, after long troubles it was replaced with another.
Google, are there many defects?

Google Refused to give credit for unauthorized online purchase.

I am shocked! Shockef that a multi billion dollar company (google) built by humans can be so cold as to fight my bank (and me) for $99.98. Someone pirated (stole) my wife's debit card information and not only made two charges but also set up a up a monthly membership for yiutube. We don't own a computer and are unsble to stream on our television. They should be able to tell us who did this but they choose to just screw us at a time when we are living from day to day under a cloud of fear of losing our income. Where is their sense of right and wrong. We are people and would appreciate a human response. Guess serving mammon helos their bottom line more than just doing what is right.

Google Search

Google search is acting crazy. I do a simple search like "current time in the Philippines" and it hits me with a multistage captcha. After I successfully complete the overly long captcha, it tells me I did it correctly and goes into an endless loop of more captcha's. All this trouble for a search! I was not even logging in somewhere or doing anything that required security.

Google Asurion

Do not use asurion to insure your iphone. They are a complete ripe-off. They charge you for the insurance and then they charge you for a broken phone. They have now refused to replace my sons phone if it breaks again, but they charged me for the insurance. I would take apple care or any other insurance but never take asurion again.
