What is the reason for the VPN shutdown?

Google has said that the number of users of VPN services is quite high. Google One also recently touched the mark of 100 million users. Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that having such a large user base is its biggest achievement, although despite this, very few people are using this service.

If you have Google Pixel 7 series then there is no need to panic. According to Google, this feature will continue in the Pixel 7 series launched in the year 2022. Apart from this, its use will continue in Pixel 8 series also. Google has said that users have been informed in this regard by issuing a notification.
Google will take care of this
According to Google, VPN service for Google Fi users will continue as before. It will also be ensured that the online experience of the users remains safe. At present, the company has not announced any fixed date for closing it, but media reports are claiming that the VPN service can be closed by the end of the year.
