| It’s be great if Google just revoked antigravity access if terms were violated. No need to disable the entire account. |

| > just revoked antigravity access That's exactly what they did, plus Gemini CLI and Code Assist, which are the same product in different formats. |

| No Google account has been banned for this. People just keep spreading this lie because no one agrees that they have the right to steal the OAuth token. |

| ▲ | sneak 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | It's their OAuth token, it's not being stolen. It's just being copied from one place on their computer to another. This is no different than a competing browser importing your localStorage and cookies from Chrome on first launch. | | |
| ▲ | NewsaHackO 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | No, the OAuth token is supposed to be used solely with the context of a first-party app only. Clearly, if you need to extract the key by reverse engineering or set up a proxy to spoof requests to a service, you're doing something shady. | | |

The operators of google.com saying you must only use Chrome to load it is a ridiculous concept. It's not spoofing to use your own access credentials on your own computer to access your own account on an HTTP API. | | |

| Only Antigravity and Gemini access was banned, not email or other google account stuff. |

| I’ll go further: there should be laws addressing account consolidation. Getting banned from an Apple or Google account is an incredibly wide blast radius. It would be like being banned from buying Unilever or Nestle food from your grocery store. |

Unfortunately the government is full of corrupt geriatrics who do not understand technology and are paid to continue not understanding technology as they sign bills prepared for them by ALEC. |
