Google is testing a new policy that reduces free cloud storage for some newly created accounts from 15GB to 5GB.
The company reportedly said the experiment is being carried out in select regions and is aimed at improving account security and data recovery.
For years, every Google account automatically received 15GB of free storage shared across Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos.
However, reports recently emerged claiming that some users were seeing a different setup during account creation.
