Idiots: Google finally declared numbers as copyrighted information
  • Weird behavior has been found in Google Drive. The platform began flagging completely harmless files as violating Google's terms of service, citing copyright infringement as the reason. Dr. Emily Dolson of the University of Michigan, USA, received a copyright infringement notice after trying to upload a text file containing only the number "1".

    Other Google Drive users have reported a similar issue with other numbers, including "0".

    Google replied that the problem was caused by a bug. Now the service is again temporary allowing files with numbers inside them. But for how long?
