2/ Last night, I got a popup on my laptop asking me to sign back into Dropbox. Unusual, but other services have logged me out randomly before, so I did not think much of it.

First of all -- im sorry this has happened -dealing with this type of stuff is my worst nightmare. Death by a thousand opaque bureaucracy through ToS inevitably feels like a 21st Century modern day "The Trial" If anything, it just seems like the centralized model for "ownership" goes beyond just physical goods, and seeps into digital data. Not owning your data makes you realize you are not even renting "the cloud" you really a serf where things you care about can be taken away from you randomly (though very rarely) but as people keep relying on these services for years, and going on decades -- when these types of events start to happen they will hurt even more.

Can you sue them… is this legal under Singaporean/EU law? I would be furious.

Thought you were going to tell you were hacked... Relieved! Cloud just doing cloud things... Nothing new. I've tried to take my Google drive away multiple time but they say export fails every time. So I don't know how to backup Google drive specific files (doc/sheed/slides...)

I thought you were hacked when I read the first sentence. Turns out, it is the web2 services rugging you which must feel even more annoying.

This is a bummer. I hope you are able to connect with someone there and recover your files. :(

Wow. Unbelievable that they won’t give a specific reason. Do you think this is unique to Singapore or would they have the same policies in all countries?
