    They started cracking down on various way people got unlimited storage for free. Aome team drive changes i think.

    Also pretty much killed the one user unlimited paid accounts. I had alot there and prices were going to be 500 mo. So i bought a bunch of hard drives and another synology. All local now.

    Yup, I saw this yesterday, now apparently for what I can see they are trying to minimize bandwidth downloads and mass sharing of files by the account having to give one by one authorization to everyone that wants to access a file

    Just look at the Rui’s signature on the forum since most of uploads were his:

    Well, it had to happen eventually. All the google drive uploads from my account are now inaccessible, due to me refusing to pay 10x more for unlimited storage, and consequently Google forcing authorization request for each and everyone of the links. It was great while it lasted. I’ll leave the google drive bypass method here nonetheless, who knows, might be useful one day.

    I’ve seen that site mentioned before and have it saved, but never looked into it. What exactly is it for?
