    I agree, staying vigilant is crucial. It’s interesting to note that even with Google’s reassurances, many users still feel uneasy given the frequency of breaches lately. Regularly updating passwords and enabling two-factor authentication can help enhance security further.

    Absolutely, and it’s interesting to note that many breaches stem from third-party apps that have access to our accounts. Staying vigilant about app permissions can be just as crucial as monitoring our primary email security.
