It’ll be like Google: everything goes in, nothing comes out unless you jump through difficult hoops, price continually goes up.
Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

I suppose this means Microsoft will not count Word doc file sizes against users’ cloud storage quotas, right? Right??

Getting anything out is already almost impossible. I moved sway from 3rd party cloud storage a couple years back. I had to get 500gb from onedrive and it was refusing to download at anything more than 50kb/s (my internet was significantly better than that)

If you’re in the EU, you can apply for a GDPR request to get sent a copy of all your data in their cloud, same for iCloud. Takes about 48 hours in my experience.

How is this served? Do they send a usb drive? Or a download link of some sort?
kernelle@0d.gs 3 months ago
It’s a download link, on their respective dashboard you can select between the catagories you want. Like on Google you can select if you want youtube, drive, gmail, or everything at once.
With GDPR they have 7 days to comply, and it should be available to any EU citizen even when outside of EU territory. So I’m assuming you can just change your region. Either way, takeout.google.com is where I’d go.

No, they upload your file, delete the local file, then oopsie, you ran out of cloud storage, please pay $99/month to access your files.
