The (small) difference with Google is that you can have a Google account without requiring any other services - just having a Google account doesn’t mean that you have to use email.
Facebook forces the use of its social network, and you can’t create an email without a profile. If you are inactive you can get banned.
- realityking 6y ago> If you are inactive you can get banned. Do you have a source for this? I know a lot of folks who abandoned Facebook without deleting their accounts, I haven’t heard of any of them getting banned.
- jobigoud 6y agoIf you create a new account and don't use it it's flagged as spambot.
- wlesieutre 6y agoIf a Facebook account has $200 worth of VR game purchases associated with it, that's unlikely to be a spam bot. I think the team that deals with spam prevention hasn't gotten the memo yet but they aren't stupid.
