I am having issues with my kosher android tablet lately every time I open my tablet it makes me sign in again and they keep on suspending my account and i have to log in from a browser and type in a capcha code and it is unsuspended but this keeps on happening any ideas what the issue might be? they say it was suspended due to "violation of terms and conditions" but I can't think of anything that I am violating?
another seemingly unrelated issue I am having with this account is that when I send an email the name that comes up on the receivers end is my email address not my name, any solutions?

Using a VPN (which may be how the kosher phone works) may be a violation of terms and conditions, and may be the reason for issue with how your name comes up. Try talking to the tech department of the kosher phone and see if they can help you.

Wow. That's extremely nasty. From the company that has their motto as "Do No Evil"...

I'm assuming that they're going to unblock them soon, but they did this since a new Google Pixel is on the way and they want to warn people not to try reselling again.

They sent a message. Nobody will try reselling Google phones again. Apple on the other hand gets slammed every year from resellers.

How do we know Google locked these phones and it wasn't the seller playing games?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

If you needed this article to confirm that google (and any other service provider) monitors, tracks, and records every single click, hover, upload, email and site that you visit I'd say you shouldn't be using any device at all.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

It's one thing to monitor.  It's another to lock.

It's one thing to monitor and use data for marketing.  It's another to monitor closely enough to lock.
