Privacy tool exit: Google to retire Dark Web Report for Gmail users; Claims it didn’t offer help
Google is retiring its free Dark Web monitoring tool for Gmail users, citing a lack of helpful next steps and meaningful alerts. The tool, which scanned email addresses for data breaches, will cease new scans on January 15, 2026, and be fully unavailable by February 16, 2026. Google encourages users to utilize other security tools to protect their information.
