I felt like it was a massive, invasive, annoying step back. I mean google has for how long focused on building their single sign on for all their services, then suddenly fuck you, no website, and give me your telephone number because why not.<p>Even though I have been using google wallet for like a decade suddenly its going to take like 10 days to verify and send payment.<p>I can't believe that this got off the ground, that someone with enough stroke at google didn't see this, and say no.<p>Well just one more thing that google has manage to wreck for themselves.
