I toss my KeePass file (encrypted database) in Google Drive.

That way I have all the convenience of syncing through the cloud, but I also get the benefit of having my database access and database storage be managed by separate companies.

If Google has a breach and my data gets leaked, sucks, but the database is encrypted so I’m good. If KeePass encryption is broken, sucks, but attackers would also have to find a way to gain access to my Google Drive.

You don't need a data breach to be worried if your data is already on google drive.

If it's properly encrypted they can't do anything with the data. Storing unencrypted data on Google drive is another story.

Really? Is there any evidence for this? I imagine they’d be open to huge lawsuits if they were exposing user data to any other parties.

I would bet you didn't read the Terms of Service and/or Privacy Policy when you created your google account. Check out tosdr.org
