This sort of thing is exactly why I migrated to a self-hosted nextcloud.
Why is it Google's business what I store on my drive? Oh wait, it isn't. And you know what else? I don't need to pay myself a per-product monthly fee for the privilege of having access to my own server. There's an upfront hardware cost, but when you start to look at the potential monthly cost, you come out ahead quickly and you've got freedom as well, which in my view is way more important.
The other thing I love is that nextcloud has a lot of optional apps that let you host all kinds of useful services in addition to just being a drive replacement.
