Comment on Romance author gets locked out of Google Docs for “inappropriate” content
fadedmaster@sh.itjust.works 5 months agoOriginal Wired article says later in it that Google thought she was spamming. This is relayed through the author though and not Google directly.
And you’re right. She still had all her work, just couldn’t share it.

"Google never specified which of her 222,000 words was inappropriate. There were no highlighted sections, no indicators of what had rendered her documents unshareable. Had one of her readers flagged the content without discussing it with her first? "
So much of her work could have broken the T&Cs that she can’t identify what it could be without highlights.
Different author, but if that’s the case (and it seems this author shares files to over 80 people in one go) then it’s a spam filter issue? Again, non story.
The headline is a complete lie.

Ah. I can’t pull the original article back up due to a pay wall but I did read it quickly so is possible it was a different author.
