The problem is not breaking TOS in general. In general if that happens because of you, you simply apologize to the company, pay a fee or something and continue.

The problem is not breaking TOS in general. In general if that happens because of you, you simply apologize to the company, pay a fee or something and continue. The problem is breaking TOS of the internet monopolists. If that happens you don't know if you broke the TOS at all, if yes, then what part of it, how to remedy it and what the rules are in general. Instead you are nuked from existence with all dependent services immediately and forever, have zero recourse or understanding because reasons are always secret, so you can't even dispute a mistake of a dumb script on their side or abuse of third party (i.e. fraudulent DMCA strike). And after erasing your existence, Google or Facebook will sic their shitty scripts on you, to prevent you ever interacting with their services.
Not all TOS are equal, and not all services are equally important and have same severity.
