They are very similar. Both situations leave you in a situation where you are unable to respond quickly enough and can cause massive financial damage. Just because the situations are not identical does not mean they are not similar and that rules from one can't be moved over to the other.

I don't think google should be able to simply lock people out of their accounts and data without any notice for them to take their data out. I was hit by this personally when google docs locked on of the documents I was working on for school at a time I critically needed it. Their given reason was simply "tos violations" despite nothing in the document being a violation and they unlocked the document 2 days later.

Very? Well, they are very different. And it's in those ways that they differ where the reasons for the tenant protections exist..

You do not have a right to a Google account. You do not have a right to force them to store your bits on their servers. They offer a free service which they may revoke at their discretion. If you do not like those terms, you are completely free to use any of the other free mail services out there or host your own mail server.

I'm not saying I'm entitled to a google account, but I do think I should be entitled to fair warning that I am being kicked off. Google should be required to send me notice so I can get my data out and on to a competing platform.

Like with rentals, they can deny me service at the start, but once they take me on to the platform, short of a gross abuse of the service, I should be entitled to a warning before the service is terminated.
