I operate on the realization that google will one day arbitrarily destroy my gmail account for absolutely no reason. At any time. Because. Due to reasons. Those reasons which include the knowledge I will likely never have anything clearly explained. Reasons I cannot appeal. At all.
This is what free gmail means to me. Same goes for youtube. Especially youtube. Videos can be deleted for no reason. Better keep copies.
Famous people have lost content on google and youtube. Blocked emails. Lost videos. etc etc. I'm a nobody. If famous, "important" people have their accounts "accidentally" deleted, what hope do I have? None whatsoever.
I have no idea what google would be like for paid accounts of my own but I was working with a company that did and the support wasn't terribly helpful during a email migration so I'm unimpressed. At least they responded to my emails after a few days.
