My eldest daughter is at university. She was writing her dissertation on Google Docs because she had a hard drive break in 1st year and didn't want to go through that again.

She's lost access to her dissertation and submission deadline is only a few weeks away.

Imagine having to explain that to your advisor

My cat actually threw up on my homework once in grade school... I took it to school in a plastic bag, because "pet ruined homework" is the oldest lie in the book.

That also makes me wonder if that daughter could have used a different account for her dissertation. In my experience universities will provide a Google or Microsoft account for students’ cloud storage
