How Googley is threatening to disable my Gmail unless I pay for storage?

Question

You'll stop getting emails on Sep 1 ... You don't have enough storage. Starting Sep 1, emails sent to you will be bounced back to the sender and can't be recovered. Try more storage for 1 month at no charge.

Delete some emails. If you're not paying for the service you're really at the mercy of the service-owner and the Terms of Service you agreed to.
