Sensitive documents, including #WhiteHouse floor plans, improperly shared with thousands
The inadvertent sharing of a #GoogleDrive folder with the entire staff of the General Services Administration was the latest instance of sloppy handling of sensitive documents under both Biden and #Trump.

Nun wurden sensible Daten des Weißen Hauses auf Google Drive veröffentlicht. Was ist da los?“
„Am Montag wurde bekannt, dass nicht für die Öffentlichkeit bestimmte bauliche Details des Weißen Hauses von der Regierungsverwaltung über Google Drive versehentlich für Tausende zugänglich gemacht wurden.“
Profis eben.

…Since the start of the second #Trump term, #GSA employees have shared 3 items with the entire agency. These included two files marked #CUI & a third described as containing #banking information, according to the records.
The GSA’s Office of Inspector General learned of the inappropriate sharing last week during an ongoing security audit of the agency’s use of #GoogleDrive, according to the records.
Continued thread
9 of the 15 files shared in the #GoogleDrive folder were marked #CUI for “controlled unclassified information,” which refers to “sensitive information that does not meet the criteria for classification but must still be protected”…. At least 10 of the shared files allowed #GSA employees not only to view but also edit the content.

The #GoogleDrive incident is the latest digital #security lapse for the #Trump admin. Last month, top officials inadvertently included the editor in chief of the Atlantic magazine in an unclassified chat used to discuss highly sensitive #military planning, & Trump’s #NationalSecurity adviser & his staff used personal #Gmail accounts for government communications, which experts described as insufficiently secure, The Post reported.
Continued thread
The records show that the employees inadvertently shared a #GoogleDrive folder containing the sensitive documents with the entire #GSA staff, which totals >11,200 people, acc/to the agency’s online directory.
The information shared also included the details of a proposed blast door for the #WhiteHouse visitor center, the records show, as well as #bank account information for a vendor who assisted with a #Trump admin news conference.

Regierungsbeamte unter Joe Biden u. Donald Trump haben versehentlich einen Google Drive-Ordner mit vertraulichen Dokumenten mit der gesamten Belegschaft der General Services Administration (GSA) geteilt. Insgesamt mit mehr als 11.200 Personen. Die versehentliche, unbedachte und übermässige Weitergabe der Daten löste letzte Woche einen Cybersicherheitsvorfall und eine entsprechende Untersuchung aus.

EDIT: Problem kinda solved by deleting all browser data, but still weird because I've never heard of Canva and run several privacy extensions simultaneously in Firefox. Any further comments welcome, but problem is at least resolved if still unexplained.
Help needed #Google #GoogleDocs #GoogleDrive
Background: I often make Google documents to share with students to edit, set to public, no login required.
Problem: Today it seems that something called "Canva Integrations" is required for somebody to access a newly made public/edit Google Doc link. This is pervasive across several Google logins, including my work-based enterprise access.
Older Google Docs, including as recent as last week do not seem affected.
Is this Google's new business model? Something else?

Next I run #syncthing on my laptop, and on my #homelab #intelN100 #n100 mini pc / server that runs in the cupboard and is very #lowpower I run #proxmox and this also has a #samba share which allows any other network devices to see the media.
With syncthing running, I always have two copies of the media, but for backup I was using #rclone to send an encrypted copy to #googledrive - which I am in the process of switching over to #nextcloud running on #hetzner

Frage an euch:
Meine Frau ist am überlegen von GoogleDrive wegzugehen.
Jetzt die Frage, gibt es einen vergleichbaren Cloudanbieter der automatisch z.B. den Foto-Ordner aktualisiert, wenn neue Fotos auf der Festplatte abgelegt werden.
Gibt es sowas ?
Ein Boost wäre nett, Danke.
Anyone have trouble downloading folders from #GoogleDrive? It takes minutes to create a zip archive of several folder - and then says “can't download file”. There is a "learn more" option, which is about Chrome, which I'm not using. I'm using Safari on macOS. If I try the folders individually, eventually I get them all downloaded. But it's very frustrating.
At some point Google Drive started preventing the context menu from appearing when you right-click something. I installed a browser extension that re-enabled this function. The modern web is quite tiresome.

One of the features I really like that differentiates Sync from OneDrive, Google Drive or Dropbox is their use of "zero-knowledge" authentication: they don't store your encryption key and cannot decrypt your files without your knowledge.
This policy does add some processing overhead. Years ago, I sometimes found file synchronization slow. But these days, I find it works transparently in the background as it should.
