I suppose you have to use a google account to access the internet

by using those details

there is a work around for them but dated 2016

When you first open up your Google app up in the top right corner it will say log in. All you need to do is log in & you don't have to do it anymore. Apparently the new update logs you out

Is it because you are using the google app? Don't think the built in browser needs an account?

Is that just on the homescreen? If you go in apps icon is there another browser? Or 'manage apps' to switch on another?

So, your problem is Playstore, which is google owned. They want you to log in to that with a google account to use it.

You can download stuff elsewhere but watch out for the security of it.
