This sort of thing, and stories of Google banning users without justification & refusing to reverse, is what lead me to start to take back control of my digital identity. Key thing is owning your email address. That’s the key to almost all your online services.
Then I do my best not to be totally dependent on services that can be revoked from me. Which isn’t to say I don’t use them but I try to have alternative routes in the event of an issue.
