This is the best summary I could come up with:
This is your last-minute warning that you have until the end of the day to log in to any inactive Google accounts before they start getting deleted on December 1.
Google is going to wipe any accounts that have been "inactive" for two years, allowing the company to free up storage space, delete unused personal data, and continue the ongoing journey of intense cost cutting it has been on for the past year.
The plan to do this was announced in May, and Google says inactive accounts should get "multiple notifications over the months leading up to deletion, to both the account email address and the recovery email (if one has been provided)," so hopefully this isn't a surprise to anyone.
Deleting inactive Google accounts originally threatened to wipe out a lot of historical YouTube content, but the company says accounts with public YouTube video will be spared.
Google left that little tidbit out of the original announcement, causing people to wonder if that meant things like deleting the accounts of old presidents or the first-ever YouTube video, but that will not be the case.
Besides its recent obsession with cost cutting, Google says shutting down old accounts is a way to combat spam, since old accounts usually don't have 2FA turned on and have old, probably leaked passwords from being used in other places.
