Where do my files travel

(1/1)

Hello, I've searched the forum and couldn't find an answer. If this has been answered already, I apologize.
When I upload a file from my PC to a server, for example, Google Drive, where exactly does my file travel? Does it go directly from my PC to Google’s server, or does it pass through some intermediate server? What makes me question this is the mention of "bandwidth used." If the file goes directly to Google’s server, why does it mention "bandwidth used"?

My program uploads directly from your computer to the file host.
As for the bandwidth, that is just a limitation in my program. It is free for small "home" usage.

Thank you.
