Well a lot of times, they do, but it's often insufficient or falsely veiled in corporate speak that doesn't represent the situation, and indicates a misunderstanding or outright bias against the account holder.
I'd like to see regulation around warnings issues before bans, so that account holders may respond and change behavior or clarify the situation with support teams in good faith before the megacorp takes a harsh sweeping action.
Folks violate TOS all the time. Sometimes, users have to do it just to use the service. An explanation in these cases is essentially worthless.
You think Amazon is going to let government pass a law that hurts them? Half the time, it's big businesses _writing_ the laws. And when it's not, the big businesses can afford to break the law (i.e. pay lawyers to hold off for a cost-effective settlement) while small businesses get f-d.
Stop buying products and services that can be deactivated at a whim -- or do, if you think it's cost-effective. But government will not save you.
