I feel like this is a common Internet Legend. People were 100% aware of gmail and its privacy since day one.

EDIT: Quote > But Google is planning to scan e-mail and add advertisements that it thinks are relevant to the messages. Additionally, the Gmail privacy policy warns that messages, even if "deleted" by a user, may still be stored in the system, even long after users have closed their account--something that some privacy campaigners believe may be in conflict with U.S. and European data protection and privacy laws.

Article about privacy right there. I talk with people and they always say Google was forced into reviling they read people's gmail. Wasn't true.
