If I buy a Fastmail email, what protections exist that would stop them from accidentally or arbitrarily locking me out? And note, I don't live in the US.

1. Use your own domain, to have a migration path out when needed.

2. Use JMAP/IMAP or https://www.fastmail.help/hc/en-us/articles/360060590573-Dow... and keep a copy of all your mail locally.
