It's not just Google you need to be worried about. Your data could easily be subject to a government surveillance request, which Google not only can't turn down, but can't even notify you if it's ongoing.

Regular run off the mill Google employee (even one working on G Suite) can't see anything of course. But I have no doubt there is a small group of Google employees who can see whatever the hell Google wants to see.

That said I don't quite get what the motivation would be, unless the reporting in question could be of material consequence to Google.

I think US government is a far more worrisome attack vector.
