Create a folder in your google drive, then make a shortcut of the file you want to download and move it to the folder you created. Then add some small file like random txt to that folder. Finally, download the whole folder. Now google drive should compress files in folder to zip file and after a minute or so download should begin

encrypt your data and encode it as a file. Upload it to youtube. Infinite storage!
jk dont do this. or do. it might be funny
Wouldn't YouTube try to "optimize" it destroying your data in the process?
it would likely be possible to have enough redundant data that it would be usable still
I wonder if anyone has encoded a slideshow of QR codes
It would more than likely be a stream of different colored bars representing bits or something, you would need a LOT of video to store any reasonable amount of data and have it get through youtube's compression.
I had no idea they even had an upper limit to downloads.
I'd love to know both mow much it took to get there and how to bypass it should it happen.
I vaguely remember something like 750gb transfer per day or something (for the drive, not the user).
For the drive makes sense
A lot of traffic would probably look suspicious
750gb upload, 5tb download per day. However this seems to be another limit, maybe file based max sharing or something.
Not sure if it works for this specific gDrive error but usually when I wanna download something but Drive won't let me I add a shortcut to it in a folder in my own gDrive account alongside a dummy text file, then I right click on the folder and download the whole thing as a ZIP.
You could try to "make a copy" using gdrive, that'll add a new downloadable version to your drive
