Man says childhood crypto mining on Azure left him locked out for 12 years
Original: Ask HN: Mined crypto on Azure when I was 13, after 12y still cannot open account
A user says he mined cryptocurrency using Azure at age 13, and twelve years later he still cannot open an account, apparently because of a ban tied to that childhood activity. The story has prompted discussion about how permanently companies penalize early terms-of-service violations, and how hard it can be to appeal account bans made against minors.
Why now: A long-running personal ban from a major cloud provider over childhood rule-breaking resonates with concerns about permanent account penalties.
