Recent rumors about Gmail being sunset were debunked following a wave of misinformation, sparked by a fake email, that spread rapidly online. Gmail, with its 1.8 billion active users—almost a quarter of the world's total population—remains a critical asset for Google, especially in gathering advertisement analytics. The misinformation led to discussions about Google's past decisions, such as the shutdown of Google Reader, and prompted some users to consider alternatives like Hey! email. However, experts and users alike agree that Google is unlikely to abandon such a valuable resource, dismissing the rumors as baseless.
Despite a fake email going around, Gmail is not suspending service. I say this with full certainty. It's the largest email provider and is invaluable for gathering ad analytics. Stop being silly before I send your phone number to an Indian call center to help fix your computer…
The thing that made this gmail misinformation meme so successful is that google has burned so much goodwill with its users that literally no one would be surprised if they shut down gmail out of the blue. Yeah, I still have an axe to grind over Google Reader.

I dunno. I think this is pretty great. I think this is revealing in what Google is the same way it was revealed at who Harvard's president was. I told you. https://t.co/rw9oTc6tuf
