It literally happened just last week. I wanted to give my son an Android smartphone. During setup, there was an option to create a "child account with parental supervision". I thought, okay, that sounds good.
Of course, it then asked for my Gmail address and password. I could say "that's understandable", but I'd be lying. I don't understand why they need my password as well, when they're going to create a new account anyway with its own password. But I didn't feel like arguing with the system, so I entered my password.
Then came the next step: "Prove that you're a parent by entering your credit card details".
Are you f***ing kidding me?!
