- dgs_sgd 5y agoWhat do you mean by associated accounts? How does Google know they are linked?
- avereveard 5y agoSame device access, same email domain, same tax registration number, going off other answers in the thread
- kwdc 5y agoIts just about same anything. Simple guilt-by-association is a real thing for google at least. You have an employee who's deemed by google as a bad app developer? That can impact the business that employs them even if its an unrelated app.
- pudmaidai 5y agoIf I remember correctly GitHub also locked an entire organization’s repos because someone accessed GitHub from a red-flagged country probably 2 years ago. I can’t wait for regulation to arrive and stop this kind of behavior.
- sundarurfriend 5y agoThat's a very different thing, because they were worried about breach of US law. Not saying that makes it fair or non-destructive to the business, but it's not in the same league as Google being over-aggressive in protecting their ad money. (And if there were regulations around this, Github would probably still have done the same thing, because "national security" regulations punch through "consumer protection" regulations every time.)
