edit:
this don't work anymore. google finally got rid of youtube accounts and made it so you have to link to a account.
i had to link youtube to a google account that let me use my hotmail email. also had to link another google account with gmail since you needed a google account for that too. if i linked my gmail and youtube to the same account it would change my email from the hotmail and i don't want that now. google is really being dumb with this and says if you have a gmail on youutbe it is permanent and will last forever. just fyi if you need to link and don't want your email changed from whatever to a gmail.

my youtube was linked to an account that wasnt mine because they signed in while i was on youtube and i just got it off my account. i had to delete the other persons account (they allowed it since someone else made the account under their name) and signed back onto youtube. thus it was not connected to my youtube any more. im slightly happy now.

They say its better security, but how can it be? if someone gets password for one thing then they automatically know the other surely???

[james42519]

@peteq1972 yeah. i still am using hotmail for youtube with one google account and gmail on another google account. they won't let me log into youtube and gmail at the same time now though.

G-Mail U Tube Account Link !!! MANDATORY !!!

It is invasions of privacy like this linking that will eventually cause utube to be replaced!!!!!!!

This is one more way for people, add agencies, information services and god knows who else, to figure out who I am what I like and what I do. If You are trying to remain incognito on you tube you better have all fake info on gmail too. I am sick of playing these games with my privacy.

@AJoseph0007 that is why i made 2 google accounts for gmail and youtube. too bad you need to log out of one to log in to the other

I tried to unlink and this is what it says before you press the unlink button: "After unlinking your accounts, you will be immediately asked to link again to a Google account. You can choose to link to an existing Google Account or have the option to create a new one." I don't get it. I had an account before 2009! Dam google! I am looking for alternative sites because I am sick of not being able to have a choice. Good thing for my fake email.

@james42519 it causes more shit than good.
