#5I don't understand. What they are describing sounds like Chrome syncing. But you can certainly install Google Drive's sync client without using Chrome/Chrome syncing. Is this a new thing?

They must have signed into Chrome, but Chrome will explicitly tell the user if their data will be accessible to the GSuite administrator[0] so this is likely on them for not fully reading this popup or forgetting about it.

Thing is, you shouldn't expect this sort of thing to happen _by default_ Also, kids under 13 have different laws for having data about them in the US, so that's an issue, as well.

I'm pretty sure Google is COPPA compliant and will not let children, without parental consent, sign up for things on their own.
However, GSuite for Education may very well introduce a loophole whereby the onus is put on someone else to get that consent. I'm getting that vibe from this knowledge base article:

In any case, interesting. This story seems like something Google would be smart to respond to/clarify.
