+1 on this for me too. Sad that it’s been over 2 year since the original post. This is a hugely much needed feature, with security implications. It’s extremely common for people to use their Google Drive as the “storehouse”, and just because I delete something locally, doesn’t mean I want it removed in Google. Virtually any syncying software I’ve every used, has conflict resolution settings to control what you want to happen. A simple - “Google always wins” setting would be a huge step forward.
Any updates on where this feature stands???
