Google intends to take down millions of individual Gmail accounts in the near future as part of a larger initiative to increase internet safety.Googlemail users, take note! Gmail accounts are at risk as Google has issued a warning and established a deadline of December 2023 for the deletion of some accounts. This impacts accounts that have not been used in the last two years.
However, if you use your Gmail account frequently to access Docs, Calendar, and Photos, you shouldn’t worry. The upgrade won’t affect those accounts.
Why is Google acting in this way? The primary goal is to increase online security. Accounts that are inactive and outdated may be vulnerable to spam, phishing schemes, and account theft.
Before deleting anything, Google will send you a series of messages to ensure the security of your account. To make sure you are informed, they will utilize your recovery email in addition to your personal email.
Thus, be sure to log in before the deadline if you want to maintain your Gmail account!
