Yeah, I've bought a bunch of Google Home devices because I really like the Google Assistant, but I don't think I'll buy any more because I just can't rely on Google for anything. Might have to switch to Apple HomePods and put up with Siri (ew).

Also in the process of switching over everything from my personal free gmail to an email that I own the domain for, as I've recently heard some horror stories about losing access to your gmail account and no recourse.

It speaks as much as the implied belief that there's no way to hold them accountable to their customers for any period of time.
