Why is Claude crazy about banning accounts? The essence is computational economics. The core reason for the recent wave of account bans on Claude is not some violation detection, but rather that the servers can't handle it anymore. The logic is simple: There are only so many platform chips, and there is a limit to the number of tokens that can be produced per minute. It's like a power plant—there's a total power generation limit, and when electricity demand surges, power must be limited. So, who gets priority? The API users who pay by usage. This is the main source of income, selling tokens. Subscription users? That's just a baseline income. So recently, subscriptions have often been very slow. Therefore: Free users → No bans (after all, they don't occupy much computational power and are potential high-quality API customers) Paid subscription users → Find reasons to ban (especially Max, the more they use, the harsher the ban) API users → Priority protection The logic behind yesterday's bans was already very clear: free registration is fine, but once you activate a paid subscription, you get banned. Because once you pay, you start consuming computational resources. Without increasing computational power, account bans are inevitable and will continue. The whole world is using it, and the server output simply can't keep up. Any violation reason is just an excuse; the core issue is the game of costs and profits. After all, it's capitalism.
