Two details folks would need to know in order to help with this are:

* How did you upgrade? An important detail there is where you get your
installation file(s)?

* Where exactly are you seeing both Google and Microsoft account info
fields? I've personally never seen that except in browsers and then
only for Google as a search engine offering.

Lastly, this is likely better handled by emailing over at the
Debian-User list *instead* of this one (Debian-Project).

Best wishes..

I think you'll find that this is explicitly not a Debian thing. It is something
supplied with the latest GNOME desktops: if you don't select another desktop
environment, then GNOME will come by default.

This is *not* an explicit request for Google/Microsoft credentials - it's an 
offer to you to put them in if you wish when you first run GNOME. The default
answer is to Skip this in any event.

I think this is standard for Red Hat derived distributions as well now with
newer versions of GNOME.

Follow ups to the debian-user mailing list, please. 

With every good wish, as ever,

Andy Cater

Is this something that should be (have - but it's never too late) in the
release-notes and/or some NEWS.Debian? could explain what gnome provides
and say it's optional - what is the user-visible feature that inputting
this info provides (I assume it syncs email or something, but then it's
not obvious to me why that entered into gnome and not some other
software)?
