One valid thing, is I was doing a login automation on my personal laptop browser. I guess it assumed it was a bot. I tried to appeal for 4 times with no acknowledgement or response.

Questions:

1) What options do I have to challenge X's suspension?\n2) Are there Texas consumer protection laws that can help in this situation?\n3) Has anyone else faced similar issues with X and found a resolution?

Doesn't require a lot of maintenance, large multiskilled teams, or dependency on services or API's that have a tendency to deprecate or disappear. Something which is not easy to compromise or hack.

Is it a stupid question? The closest I can think of is a static site generator with some kind of self-hosted database but I'm not aware of any.
