Their ToS only allow one account per person...

Does anyone here have more than 1 free account on such platforms?

Has there been cases where people got banned for having more than 1 free account?

Nothing yet. This came about before I learned to use email aliases, so I created a couple accounts in fear of being correlated across shopping sites and other services. Though at no point did I consume more than 500 MB across my accounts, the limit for one free account. Not that this exonerates me, but I'd imagine heavy use across free accounts would raise suspicions sooner.

If anyone at Proton is reading this, my apologies and many thanks for graciously providing these accounts for free the past several years. I'll stop leeching resources once I finish migrating to my new email provider.
