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.
