From the article, you have to search the web, or:

- Read or send an email;

- Use Google Drive;

- Watch a YouTube video;

- Download an app on the Google Play store;

- Use Sign in with Google to sign in to a third-party app or service.

I'm pretty sure neither of my alt accounts are in danger, despite not using them to search, ever.

If (auto-)forwarding an email counts as an account being active, it's easy enough to route emails to a common account.

Be sure to also set to delete messages in the origin inbox.

We'll see if that works when the warning notifications start.
