How do you figure they would go about that?
Banning based of similar IP's / subscriptions is an easy way to get someone false banned due to their 10 year old and force them to switch to Apple products and an AppleID for life.
They haven't successfully banned the main accounts associated with those using Google drive for piracy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I don't know what banning you're talking about. The topic I was talking about was user behaviour tracking.
I am not aware of a policy at Google to ban accounts for storing pirated files. I only know of a policy to restrict the ability to share files with copyrighted content which the user has no license to share but that's an obvious necessity.
