Google has been suspending accounts of paying customers—including $250/month AI Ultra subscribers—for using its Antigravity agent development platform and Gemini services through third-party agent wrappers like OpenClaw and OpenCode. DeepMind engineer Varun Mohan (formerly Windsurf co-founder) cited 'malicious usage' overwhelming compute capacity, but affected developers argue they were simply using the product within stated limits and that the Terms of Service never explicitly banned such integrations. The incident mirrors similar bans by Anthropic and highlights a broader industry problem: AI companies appear to be selling tokens below cost to capture market share, leaving them unprepared for the compute load when developers route subscriptions through third-party tooling.
