   > I agree + though similar when I checked if S3 alone was sufficient for 
quieting the message. I'm happy to pull GCS out of this, though IMO we should 
also add GCS to [the block 
list](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/89d6354068c11a66fcec2f34d0414daca327e2e0/r/R/arrow-info.R#L143)
 so that it's not being checked if we do that too.

   Right, we would want to change that message. 
   
   On the one hand, users won't generally experience this because they'll get a 
binary from CRAN. On the other, GCS increases build time there and increases 
the BDR attack surface. I don't know how big that risk is and if demand for GCS 
outweighs it--I haven't noticed demand for GCS, but maybe I'm not looking in 
the right places. 
   
   I guess we could leave it on, and if we get dinged on CRAN, we know how to 
turn it back off?
