OpenAI is starting to look like one of the best options if you don't want your account to get nuked. Cancelled my @claudeai subscription last week because of similar behaviour.

@steipete Same here. I'm a paying Google Antigravity Pro subscriber and I'm getting: “Cloud Code Assist API error (403): Gemini has been disabled in this account for violation of Terms of Service.” No warning. No explanation. No idea what rule I supposedly broke. They tell you to…

Pretty draconian from Google. Be careful out there if you use Antigravity. I guess I'll remove support. Even Anthropic pings me and is nice about issues. Google just... bans? https://news.ycombinator.com/ ...

They're *my* tokens *I* paid for, so if @Google want to ban me from paying them $250 a month for using *my tokens* in @steipete's @openclaw, I'll take my $250USD ai ultra per month to @OpenAI @MiniMax_AI @Kimi_Moonshot and @Zai_org who have replaced you. [image]

We've been seeing a massive increase in malicious usage of the Anitgravity backend that has tremendously degraded the quality of service for our users. We needed to find a path to quickly shut off access to these users that are not using the product as intended. We understand

Told the Antigravity team btw the problem is no transparent comms of who they banned, why, if banned users got notified (vs silent ban), what the appeals process is, if banned users got refunded. As a paying Antigravity user, you want to know you will not, one day, get silently

I've talked to the team and they tried to ban the biggest “abusers” of the service (in their view.) This ban is NOT for Google accounts “just” Antigravity usage! Confirmed with the team, until they post it in public

Google truly hates paying customers fwiw, another exhibit of this Also see how out of all the major providers they were the only ones not even trying to reach out to OpenClaw (the source of the problem probably) Every paying user banned will now dislike Google / Antigravity

This is just SO typical Google Engineers inside the company get inconvenienced but something - eg a spike in usage So they just silently ban paying users, deserved or not No communicating with the or the source of the problem (eg OpenClaw) This is why Google is hard to trust

Nobody should be surprised. The Google Gemini team are hardcore benchmaxxers. They don't build products for users, they build products for benchmark scores. The second real humans showed up and started using their system they panicked and hit the ban button. That tells you

My read? Google is on wrong side here. Should have warned users. Should have had a clearer terms of service. This was aimed at users coming in from OpenClaw. Badly executed, even if heart is in right place. But shows that demand is crushing even Google with all of its
