Google Drive file access violation

[D3DSEC_TBONE]

I wanted to share one pdf of study material of my college to one of my friend, So I uploaded it in google drive and shared the link to my friend.

 

Now, Will cops be behind me for this incident....

Something being against ToS means it will be removed from service. If it also was illegal, Google might tip the authorities about it, depending on how big of offense it was. For basic copyright violations they don't bother.

 

So the bigger question is, what was in the file?

Actually a paid course which I had enrolled for and the chapter was of 1 hour. One of my friend did not buy the course So, I cropped and sent him the lecture

So basic copyright violation. Against any ToS and subject of removal. If you would do it again, they would lock the account. But since copyright violations aren't criminal offense, but between rights holders and ones doing violations, Google doesn't push the issue. If inquiry would be made by authorities, they would provide logs and accounts of those involved.

Google is more clever than we expect.
