4shared service abuse
It's been less than a week since I started using 4shared and WebDAV to sync my library online. Yesterday, I received an e-mail from them saying that one of my files infringed copyrights. The file in itself is a zip file (I imagine its Zotero standard procedure to zip files before uploading them) containing a paper that I got for free for attending a conference (atendees received the entire proceedings with hundreds of papers).
I didn't really know how to proceed, so instead of starting a never-ending chain of e-mails explaining my situation, I simply decided to switch services. I was wondering if anyone got a similar notice from 4shared or another service when syncing their files.

adamsmithpresumably your 4shared files aren't publicly shared are they? That's a very bizarre interpretation of copyright that'd make cloud services essentially unusable.
