If they can't access the data, then they shouldn't be able to moderate it. There are plenty of things on the web where you can upload data and they don't use machine learning algorithms to decide if your content is "valid" or "invalid". It all depends on various tradeoffs.

Right, google drive has a big problem with public file hosting and piracy. If the content is encrypted the safe harbor becomes trivial to preserve.

  > Right, google drive has a big problem with public file hosting and piracy. I'm pretty sure this isn't a DMCA takedown case here. Google scanned the content of the file, didn't like it and removed access via an algorithm. Nobody but Google knows how it works. If the content is encrypted then it's impossible to use google docs document viewers, editors, or collaborate online on a document directly via google doc. It becomes just a dumb file host with no added value.
