Axios, the Washington Post, and others are reporting that the Gmail political email pilot program is coming to an end.
Axios buries the lede on this one -- putting the important bit (to me) at the very end: "Google's pilot email program, which saw more than 100 political committees participate, will end January 31, and the company is evaluating next steps."
More from the Washington Post: "The company will let the program sunset at the end of January instead of prolonging it, Google’s lawyers said in a filing on Monday." The filing is an attempt to get the RNC "unfair spam filtering" lawsuit against Google dismissed. How the shutdown of the pilot program ties to that effort, I am not equipped enough to say at the moment, but I'll be curious to learn more.
