Google account disabled for 6+ days. Some thoughts
Right, but I don't necessarily want alll of my messages vulnerable to compromise. Once I've deleted it from the server, I don't have to worry about somebody getting into my account, or the possibility of unscrupulous practices by Google.

In reality, that's not so. If you suspect that Google might be "unscrupulous" with your data, what makes you so sure that a delete is truly a delete?
There are, essentially, no degrees to trust. You either trust someone or you don't.

That's just not true. Show me one sane person who only operates on two distinct, unequivocal levels of trust and mistrust.
