Netlify Takes Down Live Sites (Not Just Deploys) When Credits Expire
Netlify penalizes free-tier users by taking down live sites entirely when deploy credits run out, with no warning and no way to purchase credits without upgrading to paid plans. Two-factor authentication bugs can then lock developers out of their own accounts with no recourse. This creates a developer hostage scenario where the only escape is paying or losing access permanently.
