Many literally fucked them. This hack was working for a day

That's amazing but I wouldn't be at all surprised to here that anyone who did got it reversed if not just outright banned from Google. I certainly wouldn't have tried in on my main Google account.
Its still working but who knows for how long. I doubt if google will ban it.
What happens when google decides to fix this? What happens to the data beyond the free tier? My guess is that it'll be deleted, and you'd be screwed if you used this as your backup solution.
E: still a really cool hack!
Bruh anyone with half a brain cell won't use google account to store personal data. All that 30tb goes to storing 4k movies and porn lol.
You.... make a really good point, actually hahahahahaha
