I know this change already took place some months ago, but I wanted to write about this now. Here's the situation: * When I click on  * I login on my Gmail account and get :but in my case, if I click on<kbd>Accept</kbd> then I'm forced to upgrade to a Google profile because of the new Stack Exchange OpenId login behaviour. * If click on<kbd>Annuler</kbd>*(cancel)* I get : I created a Gmail account in the early beginning, I only had to fill in the password, name, and email address. I also find unfair that others providers don't have to provide this information while it is required for Google. I can understand this for things like Facebook... But, not every ***Google account*** is a ***Google profile***... Also, let's be clear: * No, **I will never upgrade, the same way I would never create a social media profile**. * **Do not try to convince me it's Google**, because the message states the contrary and it perfectly work if I login using those other ways : ## **Update:** Ok, you are not using OpenId but Google+ Sign in *(which is not really OAuth 2.0)*. [According to the documentation](https://developers.google.com/+/api/auth-migration#sign-in), there are two endpoints, and using https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login instead of https://www.googleapis.com/auth/profile prompt users to upgrade to a Google+ profile even if you only require an email address. ***Anyway*** Google clearly states it : ["Your app can either prompt those users to create a Google+ profile or not..."](https://developers.google.com/+/api/auth-migration#sign-in), which means that Google requires you to upgrade to a Google profile only if requested *(I don't really know who to believe but I'm open to [discussing it](https://code.google.com/p/google-plus-platform/))*.
