So here is the issue, I use Google Drive because I am a writer who does a lot of writing. And I thought the cloud was a reliable way to store my writing, however now Google is looking through it's to train their ai. And I'm worried about that, especially since I have written a lot of questionable content, porn and the like. What if Google Now arbitrarily decides that I'm not using Google Drive properly and bans me from the Google, that's not good. What should I do and what alternatives can I use? Will these Alternatives still be around in like 10 years?

I backed up my Google drive, I'm going to try to delete some of the more questionable things off of it once I find a safe storage space. I have nothing that is in violation of criminal or copyright law, but I do have things that I have written, and who knows what they're willing to cancel you over these days.

I recently got a Community strike on my YouTube channel, over a video that had been there for years, they claim that was showing support for criminal organization is. It was a reupload of an animation created by Randy Stair, with added notes asking people to seek psychiatric help if they feel they or a loved one needs it, so that people don't end up like Randy did.

Open hearing horror stories about tiring Google accounts Frozen over the smallest of things, I don't want to take any chances.
