#12Looks like they are banning for using Gemini CLI / antigravity (subscription) endpoints instead of using Gemini API (pay as you go) endpoints.

#13This is like ISPs banning customers in the 90s for using Napster to download music.
ISPs still do this.
Obviously not with Napster, but they will close your account for piracy.

And put it on what? A NAS where a buggy vendor update (or just having it stolen) also has no recourse?

#15This is draconian.
> Our investigation specifically confirmed that the use of your credentials within the third-party tool “open claw” for testing purposes constitutes a violation of the Google Terms of Service [1]. This is due to the use of Antigravity servers to power a non-Antigravity product. I must be transparent and inform you that, in accordance with Google’s policy, this situation falls under a zero tolerance policy, and we are unable to reverse the suspension. I am truly sorry to share this difficult news with you.

#16Anthropic did something similar too didn't they, iirc it was blocking 3rd party tools from the subscription plans? Sounds like the same here. Are they against to ToS in either case?
Anthropic blocked the tools, not the entire account. But in Google's case they allowed the integration connection in the first place, so if it is against TOS then they have an obvious product gap.
Anthropic has definitely been banning accounts for using non-Anthropic tools with subscription OAuth tokens.

#17a preview of things to come, when the entire software trade is reliant on these third party services
all hosted by companies so huge they consider your $200/month to be an annoyance
rather than something valuable

#20Earlier quoted context omitted.

A hard drive.
I think the statistical odds of your hard drive failing unexpectedly, being dropped, or being stolen is much higher than a Google ban.
