You simply don't. As many have already said, there's little chance of success and it's largely a waste of time.

A better question would be how to reduce your risk of getting there in the first place? Some examples below.

1) The best thing to do is to avoid such platforms altogether. I know it sounds difficult, but think of it:

* post on your own blog, rather than twitter, dev.to, hashnode etc

* own a domain name - if your provider bans you, you can find another one; if gmail bans you, good luck appealing that

* back up your data regularly and store it on external device

2) Don't put all your eggs in the same basket:

* list your property on airbnb, booking etc

* use multiple cloud storage providers to store copies of the same (ideally encrypted) data * use a variety of ad networks combined with affiliate marketing and directly sponsored ads

* use multiple email addresses for various things (trivial stuff, personal, programming, business, freelance etc)

3) Think risk management and always seek to understand the implications of getting banned on a particular platform as well as the steps you can take to avoid that and, if it does happen, to mitigate the impact.
