You had absolutely no reason to do this, despite your automated message telling me your system “perceived a violation.†I did not violate any Terms of Service, either Google’s or account specific ToS, and your refusal to provide me with any proof otherwise makes me absolutely certain of this. And I would like to bring to your attention how much damage your carelessness has done.”
