Google One Surpasses 100 Million Subscribers

Google has officially surpassed the 100 million subscriber mark for its Google One service, as announced by CEO Sundar Pichai on Friday.
“We just crossed 100M Google One subscribers! Looking forward to building on that momentum with our new AI Premium Plan (launched yesterday) offering AI features like Gemini Advanced, plus Gemini in Gmail, Docs + more coming soon,” said Pichai.
Google One plans include cloud storage for Gmail, Photos, and Drive, plus includes VPN by Google One and a dark web report.
Exclusive perks for subscribers include Google Photos editing features, Google Store rewards, and up to 10% back on Google Store device and accessory purchases.
Google One plans begin with the Basic 100GB plan, with pricing starting at $2.79/month or $27.99/year in Canada, with options to upgrade for additional space such as 2TB at $13.99/month or $139.99/year.
The new AI Premium plan is only available monthly at $26.99 CAD per month, but right now includes a free two-month trial. The plan includes the newest Ultra 1.0 AI model, plus will soon bring Gemini directly into Gmail, Docs, Slides and Meet. No annual plan is available for the AI Premium plan, at the the moment.

Never heard of it
These are paid subscribers? Seems like a lot, but I guess a very tiny number of Google’s overall users.
Surprised anyone would pay for Google services. Why would you pay to be exploited and harvested?
Google is exploiting you regardless if you use one of their services… At least by using one you get something out of it
So, if someone is going to exploit you, you might as well pay them for it?
Lots of copium.
I’ll stick with Apple One/iPhone and all their tracking protection
Yup we do so the time… Do you think your isp isn’t selling you out?
I mean $40(cad) a year for 1TB(200GB×5) of cloud data is a pretty good deal…
I wonder what it costs for electricity to run a 5v 1tb drive per year….
