 Look, I’ve read a lot of your stuff.  I like you.  I’m saying that a beautiful and well-informed person such as yourself can use Mullvad with zero compromise.  However it’s possible that someone who doesn’t know better, and sends their account over Google customer support may have risk if they are being targeted.  Now how much is this risk?  Am I exaggerating or is it a real threat?  This depends on both how low the evader’s knowledge is, and how high the adversary’s motivation is.

We can sit and debate for long periods of time on exactly how much of a threat having the sign-out of devices ability is.  But at the end of the day, I genuinely just want people to be aware of what’s going on because otherwise there are no negative consequences for supposedly private or decentralized crypto companies using Big Tech.  Change has to come from the consumer.
