That was a bit ambiguous and I apologize for that. I meant that I had reproduced the issue several times, not created test accounts. I'm willing to bet it's not just a few accounts being affected. -----Original Message----- From: Jann Horn [mailto:jannhorn () googlemail com] Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2012 4:39 AM To: Michael J.

Your assumption that it's a simple piece of information and requires no effort to give out is correct, but the impact of the association is unwanted.
Sounds reasonable.
The fact that Google can create a test account and reproduce the issue (as I have now done several times) tells me that they want the account information for some other purpose or that they're just being lazy.
So, you now have a test account that doesn't reveal any secrets about you and which is affected... so you could surely give Google the name of that one? _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
