Exactly. I pay for internet, water and power - I happily pay for my Google account if that means I'm treated as a customer.
In fact, you can pay for your Google account with Google One, and I do, but it may or may not stop The Machine from accidentally banning my account.
Good point! I also subscribe to Google One; does that in any kind of fashion lower the chances of being hit by an auto ban?
I would hope so, it would certainly be a "probably legit" signal. I'm annoyed I have to consider the possibility at all.
