Google is giving away 2GB of Drive space for completing its account security checkup

It’s obviously on your calendar already and you’ve been looking forward to it for months, but tomorrow is “Safer Internet Day” which means Google is bringing the celebration to you.

For a few minutes of your time, and a painless checkup to ensure your account is secure, Google is offering an extra 2GB of Drive storage absolutely free.

The checkup is pretty basic, and just includes things like reviewing your account recovery options, services with permissions to use your account, your connected devices and 2-step verification settings.

If you’re wondering, it’s not deja vu, Google did the same thing last year. Fingers crossed it becomes a thing and you can bask in the glory of all that free cloud storage space has to offer, year after year.
