This isn't some default thing on G-Suite; its the DLP setting which enterprises can elect to toggle on, if they pay for the most expensive G-Suite plan. It also, afaik, only applies to shared files.
It does not work, in such a myriad of ways that I'd be blown away if it wasn't just some summer intern's project three years ago and it hasn't been touched since. But it does check boxes for audits. And enterprises don't care about actual security, they just want to check boxes for audits.
- spicybright 5y agoThat actually changes the entire context of this. Sorry, I don't think I read closely enough to the source article.
- 015a 5y agoOh to be clear, this has nothing to do with the original submission; that's a false-positive copyright issue which is global and probably applies to personal accounts as well as G-Suite. That cannot be turned off. DLP (data loss prevention) is a different feature for enterprises, which is specifically related to the social security number thing. It "protects" (poorly) against leaking lots of different classes of data from GDrive, but it doesn't do copyright, and it is optionally enabled by enterprise IT for an organization.
