I have just tried to look at my emails as I usually do and been stopped by google wanting a lot of information and for me to accept a lot of rules.Why does Google have a finger in everything when i thought I was dealing with Mozilla Firefox?

Google gets involved for any email account under the Google umbrella. It is part of their security check and usually happens only when an account is being activated.
