I'd say - use any platform for what it's good at. Extract value from platform. Benefit from it, monetise it, let it help you to gather users or following. But

I'd say - use any platform for what it's good at. Extract value from platform.
Benefit from it, monetise it, let it help you to gather users or following.
But NEVER rely on any propriately platform for your business. You're NOT in control.
Make sure you have a contingency plan. Have backup (whatever it is for your business).
Make sure you have direct, alternative contacts with your users if platform goes nuts.

While I agree with the premise of your comment, a lot of times, this is pretty much impossible to be done. If a developer gets suspended by Google or other companies like VISA, PayPal etc, it's pretty much impossible to do business then. There needs to be an internet bill of rights which should take care of these things.

The ban threads keep coming to the too, and pretty sure there are many threads like this not reaching the front page. I'm blaming this businesses too, not just google.
