alt Hacker News> Proton won’t lock me out of my email because I accidentally sang a copyrighted song in a Youtube video.
Is there a specific story you’re referring to? Mind sharing a link? I have no intention of disputing it, I just haven’t heard of that particular case.

there are plenty of examples throughout history, although i haven’t heard much about it recently. tl;dr you don’t have a gmail account, you have a google account. if that account gets banned on one service, you may lose everything.

They updated YouTube rules so it no longer is the case.
But just the other week there were stories all over HN about Google banning accounts for accidental Gemini ToS violations
