Websites breaking core functionality is mildly infuriating but Google Drive's desktop app disables CMD+C (copy to clipboard) on MacOS. And this is in a window whose sole purpose is to provide a sharable link to the user.
You read that right. A "native" app over-riding core operating system functionality to prevent users performing the very task the window is designed for.
Let that sink in for a moment.
(Since the window is a webview you can see (and debug) the JS code doing it. They are aware of the problem but not interested in fixing it.)
