Reports are coming in about some Google Docs that are being mysteriously locked, indicating "This item has been flagged as inappropriate and can no longer be shared."

Surely, a bug.

Copyright fingerprinting or illegal/against TOS detection false positives?

From the linked article:
Some people have also reported that another error prevented them from sending Google appeal requests to unlock their files.

Now, I know Google does stuff for April Fool's Day, but this is the first I have heard of a Halloween stunt.

Ah, the joy of using third party especially cloud based products for important/critical requirements.
