Unity dev here. I loathe mobile ad-driven games as well, but unfortunately Mobile dev is a numbers game. There is a gargantuan pool of regular joe-type people to whom ad-driven games are normality. Power users like you or I rarely play these things.

It's all about optimizing the (user) funnel rather than the fun. If you don't you're at odds with google/apple, the platform operator, who usually promotes based on market performance.

So even if I were to make a fun mobile game where you have no advertisement or a t least a way to nuke the adverts, there's no customer base specifically looking for that, and if there was my game would be buried under a mountain of shit and i'd have to manually buy users ... so that 95% of them never buy the ad-free option...

Really the only option that prioritizes fun for mobile is bringing in an external audience.

By that same metric, you've got hollow knight, ori, hearthstone and many more that are very good though.

You went from dealing with being banned by google to the general case of an e-mail provider disappearing. This is different. In one case you have control ( choosing not to deal with google because of their arbitrary judgments when it comes to account termination ) in the other, you really don't. ( Random calamity that befalls your email provider ).

If your email provider goes away, you're screwed. Nobody accounts for this situation. Doubly so when you used an identity provider that has gone bust. The question is, how do YOU imagine imposing regulations on mail providers will change anything in a case like this?

Store your credentials, make backups of your emails, don't use identity systems. If things really do go bust, you'll retain access until you can get manual changes made to your accounts.

The other obvious solution is to have identity/e-mail built-in as part of citizenship and be gauranteed by your government.

I do not. Becoming dependent on a large e-mail provider is only because of continued willful ignorance.

Better education for how digital services work and how to properly handle your digital identity is the right way to handle this. Implementing regulation and cementing the "major" e-mail providers who have the resources to comply will only deepen people's dependence on these corporations.

It's not removing your existence. It's removing your access to all of their services.

At every point, google users are asked to acknowledge the EULA and TOS. They're being told that google can stop their service for any reason, including that service not being comercially viable. ( I.E. Any Reason )

Access to google services isn't a right. It never was, unlike the property rights you're drawing a false equivalency with.
