These behemoths - Facebook, Twitter, Google [1] - are running businesses where scale matters and cost saving is the supreme goal. You, as an insignificant normal user, is, well, just insignificant. There’s no incentive for them to invest in infrastructure where cases like yours can be dealt with. It’s like the game that you can never win. So the only way to not be losing is not playing. [1] I’ve always been able to reach a human being at Apple, so far, so I didn’t mention them. Even for help with out of warranty devices. That’s why the recovery/backup email with my domain registrar and mail host is my @icloud.com email. Earlier it was my Gmail account. Right now my Gmail account is used in places where I even suspect I’ll get spam. I open it only when I am expecting an email i.e movie/travel ticket booking etc. Though I’m not really sure what happens to this @icloud.com email if I own zero Apple devices at some point?!
