Even less secure than Signal. Google probably has stored copies of those emails for the 13 eyes countries, and who know what else had access to them.
....are you telling me someone can hack my gmail?
At the very least, google is scraping your emails for data.
Time to ask gemini about US trouo placements!
i've always wondered, what do "they" do with the data?
Sell targeted ads based on information they learn about you. It's a pretty straightforward business model.

Mostly build a profile so they know what ads to show you, and a few helpful features such as telling you have to go to get to your flight or appointment on time by reading the confirmation mail. These days also for your AI assistent.
Try to sell you extended car warrantied.
I'm telling you that war plans are coming soon to Google AI results
I’m telling you that when you’re ready you can hack the planet
You know several nations had access to each of those accounts. These idiots reuse their passwords all the time.
