I think the point is that he has direct business with Google and yet _even he_ can't get his account unbanned.

If someone in that position is screwed, an average joe is most definitely screwed.

I think I'm going to spend the next few days working on a backup strategy for all my google related data and accounts...

I would start with takeout.google.com and put that in cold storage in a good cloud provider (obviously not google cloud).

Good luck with that. My Takeout export was supposed to start three days ago.

Already downloading my takeout export as I write this comment :). Will probably use backblaze for backup cloud storage of stuff.
