I've been a Google Fi customer for 6 or 7 years now and what constantly scares the hell out of me is the subreddit where about every 3-6 months you see someone saying:

"Google Fi did me wrong, so I reversed the charges on CC - now my entire Google account is locked / all photos / all files in drive"

This seems... like it's going to get regulated soon. Just going to take blocking the wrong account some day and boom, here we go, legislation.

I left Fi because I was very concerned about something like this
Except wouldn’t that wrong account would get unblocked quickly enough? So not change. Amazon does the same thing with [too many] chargebacks.
