Say a social media platform decides to ban someone who hasn't violated the TOS. Let's say they don't even try and pretend that they broke the TOS, but just ban them, stating whatever reason, or perhaps none at all. Is this legally allowed? I assume the answer depends on the fine print of the TOS itself, for which I'm not particularly familiar for any of these platforms, hence the question.

Most private platforms have a general "for any reason" provision in their terms and conditions of joining.
