What happens if you have more than 1 free accounts on privacy-respecting email providers such as Protonmail or Tutanota? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

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?

I kinda get it for people who want to compartmentalise their email.

I personally have 1 email I only use for banks and other important logins, and then a second one that is a bit more general use.
