Ok, I have already been asked to enter a credit card to verify my age on yt a few times before. It was pretty annoying, really, given how much google already knows about me.
And you did this? I would just abandon the idea of seeing that video and move on with my life.
I...went around teehee (something like piped) :) I'll never give google access to any banking info, they already know too much.
Somehow I'm pretty sure Google already had that information. You've never used Google Wallet to pay on the go? No? How about your Android keyboard to fill in some banking form?
I have not used either of these things. I use my Linux desktop to buy stuff, phone UX is not very good when trying to search products and reviews.
