I doubt they attack every single account every single day. At that point google should just ban the IPs doing that. Or at least turn of notifications for those IPs. Anyway excessive notifications are a solved problem. You can limit the notifications to one every month, and you can allow the user to disable them. But I would certainly like to know if someone tried to login to my account, and I think it would make regular users more security conscious.

+1 same. Rssponses like the one you just replied to completely drive me nuts. If you don't think it'll be useful for me then let me disable it. Don't use it as an excuse.

In the last week my host has blocked 173 different IPs for attempting to guess passwords on SSH. And I don't even have psasword authentication enabled on SSH. And this is on a nothing host. Almost completely anonymous and yet under constant attack.
