Unfortunately that does not answer the question. BTW if you weren’t storing illegal shit on there you should take this as a lesson. Don’t trust google with your accounts.

>it's legal content
Doesn't matter they're moralgays and can just claim it violates some bullshit company policy
Why the frick wouldn't you just store them on your own file server? Literally any shit boc PC built in the last 10 years would have been suitable. Buy a cheap hdd and turn it into a NAS and you can store terabytes at home within out anyone bothering you.
Go to the google forums and search that message. I had a similar problem last year and it was a relatively widespread bug. Looks like OP is actually a moron that stores porn on his google drive though.

well the might be illegal part is what gets me the only way they would claim it might be illegal is if it was CP
would a rasp pi hooked to an 8TB hard drive work?
more importantly how much does it cost a month?

Yes. Only thing it would cost to keep running is your monthly internet access. Set up a hardened Linux server, use ssh keys, and access via sftp. You can use an easy gui tool like winscp.

Since its only for (you), you shouldn't need anything too powerful >Cost
Depends on where you live, and the connection speed you want to have
You could have a regular internet connection and set your address with a no ip service or rent/buy a domain, dunno
I think there are free ways to do it but i dont remember them right now
Do some research, there are a bunch of ways. Easiest would be setting up a droplet at digital ocean (cheap) and deploying it through docker compose. FYI, self hosting email is hard because pretty much anyone but the big boys gets blocked or black listed pretty regularly. If you want a semblance of self hosting but have it on a more reliable platform, idk look into setting up a Google workspace account or use proton mail.
You still have to deal the same danger OP suffered
Also there is no restriction of federal access in cloud servers that aren't directly yours
The cloud is unsafe

Encrypt the directory you store data on and transmit it through encrypted tunnels. Easy.
I posted a video on YouTube of me nuking a troony discord server with 500 members and got a warning from YouTube even tho I set it on protected view (only those with links can see), apparently they are such no lives on Youtube they check protected vids (nobody reported)
What the frick, so they can terminate your account anytime because they feel like it and your whole life is ruined if you used gmail for everything? How can this be real?
thats moronic and why I don't use any social or storage solutions from google, cause those frickers link entire account and nuke it at once if they find a violation
lolbertarians unironically >hurr durr it's a private company they can do whatever they want >noooo we can't have regulations to make sure monopolies can't destroy your life without due process that's communism
Markiplier held a vote by asking his chat to post red/green hearts. It triggered a spam filter, and hundreds of Google accounts were banned. They were unbanned when it became international news.
The creators of Terraria got banned by uploading YouTube videos of their own game. The only way they could get unbanned was by publicly cancelling the Stadia port.

good thing i dont use gmail or even have a google account
If these wankers know what you are storing, do they also read our text documents? Sometimes I'm storing work related .pdfs on there, not that I care about the company I work for heh.
I don't buy this, every normie on Earth has nudes of them/their SO on their iCloud/Google photos. None of them are being nuked for it. OP clearly had something he shouldn't have had.
I have a gmail account and its disabled because Google wants me to log in from the previous location where I'm not living anymore. It does not care I have my login and my password with all the data about the account. There is no way to restore it or contact them. Because the Silicon Valley frickers never leave their shithole they think that others do not, too.
It's even funnier since I've been in contact with some Google engineers and they say it is nearly impossible to get anything done about it. Anything beyond your manager is just a silent cold stone wall.
I don't even use gmail anymore, just wanted to log into some of my old games that have account tied to it.
What did you do anon.
i stored my collection of porn pics in google photos. Lost all 8000 of them.
>i stored my collection of porn pics in google photos
You must be 18+ to post here
i am older than you
Doesn't matter, you must be 18+ to post here.
>i stored my collection of porn pics in google photos
lmao what a moron
to be honest i am surprised it took them so long, i was expecting this. Was too lazy to download all of my shit though, lol.
deserved. frick coomers
what did we do to you?
supporting israeli businesses like porn industry
how am i supporting it? I didn't pay for anything.
All detected CP gets stored in Google's executives private cold storage archives.
i didn't have any CP that i know of.
you are paedophile, don't try to deny it
How is it supporting the industry if he got it for free?
The goal of the industry isn't money, it's the downfall of western civilization. And you're playing right into it.
kek
stop reading /misc/, it's not healthy for you
frick /misc/ and their western civilization downfall meme. I'm against porn because it is terrible for mental health
>the goal of capitalism isn't money
read a book
You're mentally ill
Maybe, but at least I'm not a globohomosexual puppet
right, you're a /misc/ puppet instead. aren't you proud of yourself?
Yes
what if im not part of the western civilization then fricktard
Then you're collateral damage but nobody cares.
jesus christ what a dumb motherfricker
you don't use normie storage for porn
YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS YOU FRICKING TARD
did you have pedo shit
no
sure, cops are on their way
He obviously did, how could you be this naïve
i did not, i'm a moron but not like that.
>i stored my collection of porn pics in google photos. Lost all 8000 of them.
Moron, that shit gets data mined for "security" reasons
it's legal content
how do you know for certain that it was legal bud?
because all of them were handpicked

>it's legal content
Doesn't matter they're moralgays and can just claim it violates some bullshit company policy
didn't ask
>8000
That is what you earn by storing your data in someone else computer
You get what you fricking deserve
Why the frick wouldn't you just store them on your own file server? Literally any shit boc PC built in the last 10 years would have been suitable. Buy a cheap hdd and turn it into a NAS and you can store terabytes at home within out anyone bothering you.
lmao pedo btfo, kys already
This happened to me a few times last year. It was a bug though.
that does not seem like a legitimate message google would put in an error the wording is wrong i don't believe you OP
It’s very real
prove it
Go to the google forums and search that message. I had a similar problem last year and it was a relatively widespread bug. Looks like OP is actually a moron that stores porn on his google drive though.
well the might be illegal part is what gets me the only way they would claim it might be illegal is if it was CP
>sir, you're Googol accaunt is lock, we detected very bad virus that infect uor servers! if you dont pay the fee we are require by FBI to arrest you
>he doesn't self host
Absolutely pathetic.
>he runs mailcow
Absolutely pathetic.
not OP but how do i self host?
Have your own computer connected to the internet 24/7
Access to it through a password
would a rasp pi hooked to an 8TB hard drive work?
more importantly how much does it cost a month?
Yes. Only thing it would cost to keep running is your monthly internet access. Set up a hardened Linux server, use ssh keys, and access via sftp. You can use an easy gui tool like winscp.

still someone else's computer.
Lame. Don't be pedantic.
You still have to deal the same danger OP suffered

Encrypt the directory you store data on and transmit it through encrypted tunnels. Easy.
That's not self hosting.
i wanted to, but was too lazy. Wil do now. What hardware do you guys recommend as a low power basic server?
I posted a video on YouTube of me nuking a troony discord server with 500 members and got a warning from YouTube even tho I set it on protected view (only those with links can see), apparently they are such no lives on Youtube they check protected vids (nobody reported)
Oh well, time to move off goytube
Do you lose access to gmail as well? Holy shit that's fricked up
of course
What the frick, so they can terminate your account anytime because they feel like it and your whole life is ruined if you used gmail for everything? How can this be real?
thats moronic and why I don't use any social or storage solutions from google, cause those frickers link entire account and nuke it at once if they find a violation
Globohomosexual corporations control your life
Using your own webserver for email is the only solution
>your whole life is ruined if you used gmail for everything?
Your life is already worthless if you use gmail for everything.

oh no that sucks
If these wankers know what you are storing, do they also read our text documents? Sometimes I'm storing work related .pdfs on there, not that I care about the company I work for heh.
they know everything. Every file you store, every person on the photos you store, every video you watch, every keystroke you write, EVERYTHING.
I don't buy this, every normie on Earth has nudes of them/their SO on their iCloud/Google photos. None of them are being nuked for it. OP clearly had something he shouldn't have had.
OP probably had something that is in the CP or other illegal porn lists

This shit is why I need to drop google as my email. Hell, even Outlook is better since at least microsoft will help recover your account.
lmao this moron still uses gmail
>even Outlook is better
No it's not
back up your shit as soon as possible
