Complete speculation because I don't actually know how this works, but I wonder if the explanation would be something like this:
"You've been banned because our black box ML algorithm says your usage patterns share similar traits to those of known spammers."
Some government decisions are indirectly forbidden from using black box "algorithms" because they are obligated by law to explain (on demand) the steps that the algorithm took to reach its decision. Maybe something like this should also apply to some private companies ?
Thats kinda what the PayPal support told me when I asked why half of my in-store payments via Google Pay get rejected.
Most were payments of about 2€ in the same store next to work.
Whatever I dont use it anymore
