I've had an experience like this but with less consequence. I was running a server years ago that scraped information from various cryptocurrency sites and it was flagged as fraudulent. Support refused to say what the issue was or offer temporary access to the server for data retrieval. This wasn't some cowboy unbounded crawler either, it was making very specific requests, around 1000 a day for around two weeks, probably less than an average day of web browsing for the majority of people.
I'll never use DO for anything, even testing and mucking around. At the very least you would have to provide excessive evidence of identity if you get flagged by their magic algorithm, and if they restore your service it could be after days of wrangling with support (it took support over a day to answer my support tickets at the time).
