UPDATED Google Drive users are reporting files mysteriously disappearing from the service, with some netizens on the goliath's support forums claiming six or more months of work have unceremoniously vanished.

The issue has been rumbling for a few days, with one user logging into Google Drive and finding things as they were in May 2023.

I know quite a few tech oriented people and I don't know anyone who actually has the holy trinity of backups. I know quite a few who have physical backups at home and cloud though.
