| That's, of course, a The Register's usual clickbaity manipulation.
The criminals did not "break into the system", just created an account, but did not access any data.
Doing business on lies related to Google is apparently still popular in 2025. |

If they did not have permission to create that account and exceeded their authority to do so, they "broke into the system". Not Devil's Advocate: Yes, Its The Register. Nothing new here. | |
