Ask HN: How Googley is threatening to disable my Gmail unless I pay for storage?
You'll stop getting emails on Sep 1
...
You don't have enough storage. Starting Sep 1, emails sent to you will be bounced back to the sender and can't be recovered. Try more storage for 1 month at no charge. Delete some emails. If you're not paying for the service you're really at the mercy of the service-owner and the Terms of Service you agreed to. It's wasn't Googley 20 years ago [0, 1], but I'd say it's Googley today. Two options, delete or pay. I did both. Google Takeout. Archive that shit. How dare they make money with something that is not advertising!
