I went through it to register just now. No QR code required. Same flow as it has been for years:

1. Personal/Child/Business

2. First/Last

3. Pick email

4. Date of Birth

5. Backup email / Skip

6. Password

7. Enter phone number

8. Confirm with 2FA code

9. Done.

I just made the email [email protected] and have since forgotten the password. So that’s one burned. But feel free to try [email protected] and see if it works without a QR code.

The headline is clearly a misstatement of what is a specific flow for someone to make many Gmail accounts programmatically.
