This was an issue 10+ years ago and I'm shocked it still exists. In the early days of Google+, some people lost their accounts for not having "real names". Whether or not you agree with a real names policy (I don't), you should never lose access to your Gmail or Google Photos or Youtube channel because of it. Even though this didn't happen to me I learned that my Gmail is too important to lose so I can't use that account for anything else and that's dumb and shortsighted of Google. It says a lot that this hasn't been fixed in 10+ years to safeguard your Gmail account in particular. Uploading an offending image (which could be an ccident) to Google Photos shouldn't terminate your AdWords account.
