It’s unlikely they’d want to let someone accused of “terrorist activity” download their data, since if it was actually a terrorist some future investigation would probably blame them for materially supporting terrorism which is illegal.

That's why you do it on a schedule and already have the dump downloaded before your account is flagged.
Where is the due process or do we outsource this to private companies too?
Due process does not apply to companies choosing not to service you.
They cant steal or destroy your property though.
whether or not that is true is not an issue of due process

due process is "the state isn't allowed to do things to you unless they're in the law"

so like, a king would just make up criminal punishments. oh, you stole a painting? four years. THE PAINTING OF MY MOM? THIRTY YEARS, NO, FORTY.

because of due process, that isn't legal here

due process only applies to the application of the law, by the state
