Google will begin deleting millions of inactive Gmail and Drive accounts in December

The good news, as others said is that Google claims that Youtube channels wont be affected, however I aasume that over time they'l go that rought as more people start to stream in 8k or beyond. At some point they are going to have to delete older content as hosting it all isn't cheap. As big they are Google can only go so far for preservation when they keep boosting streaming video quality options.
