Google said in May that, starting in December, it would begin purging inactive accounts, a warning sign of sorts to people who use multiple logins. "I'm of the mind that email subject lines should be explicitly clear, especially if a consequence is attached to a customer's inaction," she wrote. Users commonly maintain multiple accounts, allowing them to use different email addresses for different purposes, and to store online photos and documents in separate places. But for Google, storage space on free accounts is a cost. The new policy doesn't apply to schools or businesses using Google accounts.
