Re: [802-LMSC] Google update
James,
For 2026, if you already have GoogleApps@IEEE it shows up on the renewal as $0. If you do not currently have GoogleApps@IEEE, it is a $37 add on. The remove option is not yet implemented.
For 2027, if you already have GoogleApps@IEEE it shows up on the renewal as $37 and will have a remove option.
Cheers,
Glenn.

Thanks for passing this on. My only question is how do I opt out of paying the $37 as part of my membership in 2027? I don't want a Google account.
