@mttaggart Odd that this would happen at almost the same time Google has said it would start to eliminate unused accounts.

@santoperdido Correlation != causation, but that is quite the coincidence.

@mttaggart If you are willing to trust the "cloud" with your data you must not care about your data. IF you do not control your data you do not control your data. This is the rule I have always followed and my data is secure.

@Ulrich_the_Elder Bully for you. People can both use Drive and have other backup solutions. And that still means this can be impactful.Don't do that thing where you lord your data practices over others like you're so much better. It's quite distasteful.

@mttaggart bleeping computer says it appears they rolled back to a snapshot from April-May. I'm wondering if Drive got compromised and they are having to roll back to clean backups...https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/google/google-drive-users-angry-over-losing-months-of-stored-data/

@cyberfarmer I highly doubt it. I'd much sooner believe a fat-finger or other mistake than a Drive compromise.
