    Hi, most GD links I try now present a "You need access" message instead of a direct link. Then I have to request access and wait on an email. I have done this several times, never get any authorisation emails. Is this a setting created by the uploader, or has GD changed something recently? Most files seem to be behind this wall now and are inaccessible.

    I've tried switching accounts in GD, it makes no difference.

    I've got loads of GD links lined up in Jdownloader, now every one of them is coming up with a request for access. There's no way I can email all those people, and no way they'd all reply. Are these links now useless? Is Google Drive broken?

    This is so frustrating. Lately, most GD links shared on this forum are locked.

    @ The users abusing the locking GD:
    JUST MAKE THE ACCESS AVAILABLE FOR EVERYONE OR UPLOAD THE FILES TO A DECENT HOST LIKE MEGA.IO. STOP BLOCKING CONTENT WAITING FOR USERS TO BEG FOR ACCESS, DAMMIT!

    Google Drive is bad anyway especially because of no resume downloads feature.
