I know people who’ve run afoul of Google and had their accounts banned. They lose access to everything with zero recourse.

That reminds me, gotta go pick up my Google Takeout.

But would they really only go after people who are logged into their Google account? Because then it's a simple matter of opening an incognito tab. And then they either let it go, or take it to next level by banning anonymous visitors by IP, or tip their hand and reveal that they spy on you in incognito tabs. Either way it's gonna go well with popcorn.
