is it reasonable to shutdown a suspect case of abuse without giving time for the service provider to investigate and respond to this case?

Yes, if there are enough complaints and harm that may come from it is serious enough.

So, the writer of the article had one complaint. The forms cannot take passwords.

A second complaint, without any investigation, would result in the termination of his account and destruction of data.

That is not reasonable.

We don't know this. We have no idea how many complaints rackspace has against this guy. It could be one or it could be dozens.
