It is not FUD. It is a factor to consider, especially if you are thinking of creating mission critical software. There is no doubt that Google has plenty of form in killing projects, some of which were quite popular and/or highly visible. After all what percentage of Google income/infrastructure depends on Go?

I personally think it is highly unlikely that Google would kill Go, but I do think one has to consider the possibility before betting the farm.
