After Google issued an apology over Gemini's refusal to produce images of 'white people' including historical figures like the founding fathers of the USA, an alleged post has been doing the rounds on social media sites claiming that the company is 'sunsetting' its flagship product, Gmail. However, the tech giant has made no such announcement about the platform, which has over 1.5 billion active users worldwide., World News, Times Now

i’ve seen multiple tweets about this, i cannot confirm, but i wouldn’t put it past google. such an endlessly pigheaded and stupid company at every turn. they’re allegedly sending these emails out sporadically to some random subset of gmail users
