I never signed up for any Google groups--do not wish to participate in any of them. I have gmail on another device, and Google browser on my desktop--that's the extent of my participation, but 'liberties' are taken. You should see (no you shouldn't!) the obscene mail I get daily from women wanting to 'hook up' from other countries. They don't care that I'm a woman too. Someone sold them my address. It is such a hassle to change it, so I delete and delete--hoping they will stop someday.
