How could it work? It would seem the business would need to have some agreement or side channel with Google/Apple/Microsoft to bypass the issue. Something like "we will pay you $Amount/year to let us reset any agreed upon account". Then collect a monthly fee from the users to subsidize the expense.

They'd collect enough data on signing the policy to be able to independently verify your ownership of the account, and in case the account gets locked in the future, you'll get an insurance payout to help you cope with the damage. Not that different from order kinds of property insurance.
- accrual 3y agoAh that makes sense, thanks for clarifying. It would be cool though - subsidize for some dedicated account "unlock/fix/repair" team at $CORP. They get paid a bunch to sit around and wait for incoming tickets, then actually help out versus stonewalling the user like Google does.
- amelius 3y agoIt could work like this. You pay a monthly fee. When you are locked out, then the insurance will cover the legal expenses.
