Google is now letting users in the US change their Gmail address

Users will be restricted to changing their username only once every 12 months and cannot delete a newly added email address during that 12-month lock. This is a platform account-management policy change that may reduce username churn but could complicate email updates and increase support workload. The change is operational and likely immaterial to financial performance but may have small customer-experience impacts.
