Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I wonder if this is just consumer accounts and if workspace accounts are affected or not.

I think in the sysadmin sub some people were talking about data loss in their workspace accounts but I could be delusional

What does "consumer" and "workspace" mean in this context? "Google Workspace" pops up now whenever I start Gmail, so I figured it's just their new branding, but now I don't know what the difference is here.

Paid organizational e-mail with a custom domain vs. free private e-mail with @gmail.com address.
