  <p>The <app>GNOME Online Accounts</app> (GOA) are used for
  setting personal network accounts which are then automatically integrated with
  the GNOME Desktop and applications. The user can add their online accounts,
  such as Google, Facebook, Flickr, ownCloud, etc. via the
  <app>Online Accounts</app> application.</p>

  <list>

    <item><p>selectively enable a few online accounts;</p></item>
    <item><p>disable all online accounts.</p></item>
