This isn't Google Drive for Linux, it's third-party sync software.

Indeed, it is also worth mentioning that it is only free during the beta. Something which was not obvious from the download page.

Third party, proprietary, 10$ software when it's out of beta.

Edited. Thanks.

Been using Insync for a couple of weeks from AUR, works better than nowt, though the flat hierarchy of Google Drive is annoying.

Encryption would be a really nice feature. Anyone got recommendations for related solutions?
