Cookies are used to ID web browser, not to provide access to email accounts. Thus when you log into your webmail account with an ID'ed browser, they don't know who created, but they know where, when and get the machine used to create. Subsequent uses of this same machine increase the confidence of who is the user behind and what are her interests, even if you IP address changes through tor, vpn, physical movement.. -- 010 001 111 -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

Not sure - probably only thing you'd have access to is acct just created?? Maybe I misunderstood. I thought you also had access to your other features, once you created the gmail acct. And you already had a main google acct (don't know what they call it) that perhaps was why it let you create the email acct w/o a phone #? If you had another google acct still had cookies from previous session, they would've recognized you that way. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
[tor-talk] Gmail account without phone number
Hi, I have been reading on this mailing list that it is not possible to create a Gmail account without a phone number. I have just created such an account (this one). I was curious if this is a change on Gmail's part or if the conditions of my sign up were not the same as those having problems. I created this account without using Tor, so perhaps that is the critical difference. Thanks! -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

I believe anyone who runs a relay (exit or otherwise) has trouble signing up from the same IP without a phone number.

Personally, if it's ANY sort of anonymity / privacy I'm concerned about, Gmail's the last one I'd want. Others will want to know. Was it thru Tor, or regular browser / ISP? Which country are you in (don't say, if in one where someone ID'g you could be dangerous). Any other (GENERAL) pertinent how to's - that won't compromise your anonymity, if any. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
