I used Google Workspace for a startup. Startup went idle for a while. Google sent a message to me warning the account would be terminated unless I logged in on some short timeline. GMail filed its own email as spam. Boom. Everything from that startup was gone.
I used Google Workspace for my family domain. Google decided to discontinue GSuite/Free. Now, I'm SOL.
I've had similar experiences with Youtube. I build a major startup with Google as a partner. Videos were on Youtube. Google had 4 engineers assigned to us. Youtube has a bug which took us down. There was no way to resolve the bug, even with a team supporting us (in a different part of Google). We had to migrate off.
I've more recently been involved in businesses integrating with Workspace. On the API side, Google suddenly required a security audit for our business integrations to keep working. That's tens of thousands of dollars. Many small businesses went under when Google introduced this. (https://www.prescientsecurity.com/google-oauth-api-verificat...)
We also had an extension, which is in the process of breaking with Manifest V3 (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/chrome-users-beware-ma...). Again, many Google partners are going out-of-business over this.
Each time I've done business with Google, I've eventually been !@#$%.
These are all true stories, but they're not all the true stories I have. I have a much longer collection of stories of being !@#$% by Google. Some I can't talk about have to do with Workspace security issues. BOY was that a rabbit hole. If I could talk about it, you'd never do business with Google either. Google has excellent security for their data, but not for your data.
Google doesn't mind killing your livelihood with random changes like these. It happens over, and over, and over. Everyone thinks it won't happen to them, until it does.
