Oh I am not saying they're not a gigantic provider, I'm saying less than a third is very far from "the vast majority" and exageration and misinformation help no one's case, be they on purpose or due to lack of knowledge.

I would shy away from calling them a majority myself, but it’s a fair point.

Remember that email involves at least two parties. It doesn’t matter if I use a non-Google provider, I still have to follow all of Google’s email rules, or email will be useless to me because I wouldn’t be able to send mail to Gmail or Google Workspace users.

In a practical sense, Google have very direct control over almost all email.

They're probably the biggest provider in existence.

      I was being a bit generous. I did the research. Google has 1.8 billion active users. They're the biggest.
