Here’s your new Motorola StarTAC with 120 anytime minutes and double-sized battery. That’ll be $600. Do you want to play with your Discover card?

What was I doing in 1995?
I would wake up, pour some Frosted Flakes and play Donkey Kong Country.
What would I do now?
Go outside and take a slow walk through my old neighborhood and probably cry.

That doesn’t make syncing the same as backing up, that’s an actual backup service with a sync feature added to it.
By all means, share links to such services if you have any.

If you’re going to go through all that trouble, you’re not going to target Google Drive outside of a proof of concept, just remove it from your workflow and make life way less complicated.
Buy inexpensive server access in a neutral country and apply that logic to it. So much more freedom & privacy, so much more reliability.

You’re conflating syncing with backing up, and unfortunately that very thing is what confuses so many not-tech savvy people into thinking cloud syncing is the same as an actual recoverable backup.
If you found a service that does actual hard backups with versioning and still makes accessing those fils as easy as cloud storage, awesome! Post links to that.
That is a valid offsite backup solution. Google Drive is not.

Anything that syncs doesn’t actually backup. It’s just a mirror. If something happens to one of them, that deletion/corruption might get synced to the other one before you can recover it.
Online backup is a different and valid thing, it’s an actual static preservation of a version of the files at some point in time that isn’t automatically edited or removed based on the contents of another device.

Cloud storage is NOT A BACKUP!
