Google has recently announced an update to its Inactive Google Account Policy, which will result in the deletion of millions of inactive accounts that have been untouched for at least two years. This move aims to address the security risks associated with abandoned accounts. So, Let’s delve into the details of Google's revised policy and its implications for users.
Google decides to delete any account that has two years of inactivity. See how they decide to go about it.
It is, though 2 years is a little short. I just got back into my very first Yahoo e-mail not long ago and that wouldn’t have been possible with a policy like this.

That feels okay to me?
