“Government services” suggest not using Gmail
CrimeaPRESS reports:
Users of the State Services portal who registered their account using the Gmail mail service are invited to use the transfer of their mailing address to other platforms — in particular, to XMail from VK.
You use @gmail.com to access Government Services. It receives important messages and password recovery emails. Google recently limited the use of SMS verification for creating new accounts. We cannot guarantee that this feature will continue to work for existing accounts.says the message to the service client, which quotes TASS.
Users are asked to replace their @gmail.com email with any other one by specifying a new address in their personal account settings. At the same time, the message indicates that you can use the @xmail.ru service from the Russian company VK, which is already integrated with State Services.
Let us recall that at the end of September, the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation recommended that users of the services of the American corporation Google in Russia create backup copies of their data, as well as switch to using alternative methods of two-factor authentication or to domestic platforms.
At the beginning of September, confirming a new Google account using a Russian mobile number became impossible. Thus, the system allows you to take all the steps to create a new account — select your name, gender and date of birth, come up with an email name and a password for it. But you won’t be able to confirm your account using a Russian mobile number, since when you try to register through it, the line “this number cannot be used for verification” appears.
The outage of Youtube, which began on August 1, affected users of the video hosting application on iOS and Android. In addition, there are glitches in the operation of Youtube in the browser. Users are not able to watch videos. Rostelecom previously announced the discovery of technical problems in the operation of equipment owned by Google and used on the operator’s network infrastructure, as well as in the exchange of traffic between telecom operators, which could affect the operation of Youtube in the country.
