When it comes to cloud storage, most users expect providers to be infallible. You upload your data, and it stays there. Safe and secure. Forever. However, even the mighty Google is not immune to glitches, as many users have reported the loss of data they have uploaded to Google Drive.
Last week, a user reported the loss of Google Drive files on Google's support forum (via Bleeping Computer). At the time of writing, there were 347 users saying 'I have the same question'. The thread describes situations where data had vanished to as far back as May 2023. Some users have paid accounts, while others report the loss of business data.
