The idea of losing all of my email access, etc, is terrifying, much like the idea of getting in a car accident, or getting cancer, or one of a million bad things that can happen to a person. But what are the actual odds that a bad thing is going to happen to me? 1.8 billion people are currently using GMail. If 1000 "real" (ie, not bots) accounts were closed every day for the next 80 years, there's a 98% chance that I (or any other individual user) would never have a problem. Obviously, if some number of people are having problems that's, well, a problem, but as an individual user I mostly assume that it's not going to happen to me, much like I largely don't think about the 1-in-103 chance that I'll die in a car accident.
