I found the first 1/4 of my WIP, which I recently put on Google Docs for beta feedback, was locked up because of it was "reported as inappropriate." Except it wasn't. I Googled around and found out this is a huge glitch that hit Docs users yesterday right after Google pushed some new code out.
But here is the thing: as of late yesterday Google was claiming they'd resolved the error. They are making similar claims today. They are lying through their teeth. My document, and by the looks of things surfing around the internet and Google help forums, thousands of other users' documents, are still inaccessible because they've been automatically flagged as inappropriate.
I'm not worried about losing data because I have multiple backups. But I do think it's extremely shitty of Google to claim this is "fixed" when they know goddamn well it's still affecting thousands of users. And I'm shocked that the tech news reporters are buying into and repeating Google's baldfaced lies.
Anyone else affected?
