You can also just sign up at “Pokemon.com” w/your e-mail to be a “trainer” and use that account for Pokemon Go and SKIP the whole Google account sign up stuff.

If I wanted to play this game, I would certainly avoid signing up for a Google account ... they collect WAY too much information and who knows who will see it.

Again, my children think I'm paranoid ... but I would prefer to err on the side of privacy.

Thanks for the info, FRiend! :)
