This is from gmail license:

When you upload ... you give Google (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use ... modify, create derivative work. The rights you grant ... are for... improving our Services, and to develop new ones. This license continues even if you stop using our Services ....

That's very different. I license Google to use my idea, it is still my idea. I can still do whatever else I want with it.

If I transfer it then it belongs to Google now.
