Yeah, so basically Google invented a feature that finds your important files and deletes them. The future is here!
Of course I'm exaggerating for humoristic effect but in all seriousness I think the whole action is extremely poorly executed. I would be surprised if there weren't some cases of people actually losing something important because of this.
I was sure I'm getting baited when I clicked the link but it's one of the rare cases when it actually turned out not to be a clickbait.
This feature literally found and isolated "important files" and now they are deleting those files. Just because it was never available in the US doesn't mean it's irrelevant.
