Sorry, I meant background on the assertion that Google was planning to
blanket disable application passwords.

I know a lot of _organizations_ have started (with both Office365 and
Gsuite) started disabling "legacy" (read: Internet standard) protocols
like IMAP, or making it more difficult to use without OAUTH / MFA login
support.

But did a quick search and hadn't found references to Google disabling
app passwords more broadly than that, so was just wondering where the OP
had read that (as it would likely affect many of us on this list)
