Although they probably wouldn't want to live with all their emails being discarded because gmail becomes so easy to hack and everyone assumes gmail accounts are spammers.

Huge amounts of spam already originate from gmail addresses, so I don't think this is a good example. That's not to say that I think security should be weakened, though - it should not, but for other reasons.

I already assume all mail I receive is spam, Gmail or no.
