Safer Internet Day used to be a time for Google to give away cloud storage.
To help celebrate Safer Internet Day 2016, Google offered an extra 2 GB of storage to your Google account for free.
In fact for a few years Safer Internet Day was a time for Google to give generously. Every year many will search to see if a gem will be released. As Safer Internet Day 2019 heads closer, will we get another surprise. Actually Google is 21 soon. Born in 4 September 1998, will that bring us any new surprises?
What happened in 2016
Now if your anything like me your Gmail and Google docs soon add up and an additional 2 GB of free Drive storage to your Google account is always welcome.
The Free 2GB Google Giveaway
To qualify just make sure you complete the Google Security Checkup on this page. The checkup is really important, as it will give you a major protection.
You then just check some security credentials to make sure everything looks correct, e.g. correct security email and phone number, and you can chose to revoke access to various accounts and 3rd party software. In effect it is the 2GB carrot to encourage you to do something you should do from time to time.
Your Google Account is protected by the most advanced online security. Keeping these settings up-to-date safeguards your account even more. The weakest link is probably YOU. Google did the same thing last year for Safer Internet Day, and it sure would be nice if they kept at it. We don’t yet know when this offer will expire, but last year you had a week to complete the checkup.
Make sure you pass on this great news to all your Google friends.
