PSA: Woah.wait. I just thought since personal data of about ~30 million people was leaked, most of them would be having Gmail accounts. So, isn't Gmail under threat too? I think GOOGLE should also issue an advisory asking people to change their security questions. Did I miss something?

Google has been actively trying to get people to stop using security questions in favour of various kinds of two-factor for quite some time now (mainly mobile phone number based stuff). They'll be fine.

I know, but many still might be using these questions right?
