This announcement is posted in the "Google in Europe" topic. Also, one of its paragraphs states:
> That’s why our engineers at the Google Safety Engineering Center in Europe developed Privacy Checkup as an easy way to review key settings and see (and delete) the data that Google collects to provide you with helpful experiences.
It seems to be an attempt to get explicit consent from users in Europe for further processing of their Gmail data.
The UI of the dialogs which ask for this consent is specifically designed to discourage the user from not providing it. For example, if you choose an option to "Turn off smart features" you are presented with another dialog where you are asked whether you are sure and where you need to confirm this choice.
