❌ Google is changing their account inactivity policy. This may have some serious ramifications, but it's easy to keep your account from being deleted.

❌ Deleting inactive Google accounts
Google will begin deleting accounts inactive for over two years. You can protect all your Google accounts by signing in to each and doing anything. For inactive accounts with content you want to see preserved, you’ll need to take explicit steps to archive that content before it’s removed from the internet.
