Fantastic breakdown -- very much appreciated. I don't mind creating a new email address if needed, even though I've had this one for over a decade. What you mentioned are very real risks that would be catastrophic should they actually come to fruition.

I'm taking some networking courses online which will hopefully help in terms of being more tech literate and being able to do this.

Regardless, I'm definitely going to start the transition. I also use their cloud storage and have very important documents in there.

Thank you for the education and the heads up.
