We've received such an email on 2019-01-29, warning us that some parts of the API may fail as early as 2019-02-15 or 2019-01-28. IOW, breakage may have begun before the notification. Fun.

Interesting to hear that it's not just G+ users who are getting dumped on by Google here.

Dropping functionality the day before the notice is sent is ... troubling.

As I've noted about several similar such instances previously: this is the company that wants us to trust it to build driverless cars and other such systems? Vastly better process and respect is required.
