When you have been inactive in Gmail, Google Drive (including Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drawings, Forms, Jamboard or Sites files) or Google Photos for 2 years, all of your content may be removed from that product.
If you have anything you haven't touched in a long-ass time hosted by Google, you better back it up now. This does not apply though if you're paying for Google One.

Which I'm sure a lot of you are doing.

i don't think i've ever stored anything in a google drive before, but this is the future of "the cloud" where they can just arbitrarily delete your stuff.

what on earth is 'Google One'? Never heard of it till today. Is it like google Plus?

Google One is Google's subscription service that gives you extra storage and a few other perks.
