Meta is no different. I know a company that had their OAuth app on Meta rendered completely unusable just because one of their employees (a dev) had their personal Facebook account banned by Meta for no reason. They tried to escalate it multiple times but got nowhere, lol. Meta is even worse because accounts need to be 'personal'; if you have a Business Manager, the users added to it are all tied to their personal Meta/Facebook accounts. This is ludicrous.

To me, building any business with dependencies on Meta is just a bad business plan.

Yeah, people loose their business because a kid is logged in on their iPad, gets their google account suspended, and google knows it's the same household as the parent, and everything gets shut down

Meta and Google B2B are both horrible. Their ad account bans are constant, and they have no real escalation process to get help. These companies are monopolies that should treat businesses more seriously, especially in these situations.
