Specifically, from the Microsoft Services Agreement: It's called an 'agreement.' In it the language about, in the United States lingo, obscene content. You mention your sign and use it to illustrate a point… Microsoft doesn't need an example, they already use the sign, although in very real and very legal way. I have been seeing red since this happened. We need time to get OUR personal belongings back. A life time ban?! You're kidding me…We need warning. I use outlook for work, MS Office for work and anything. 'I saw something in your wallet that I didn't like. This guy doesn't get his wallet back, and send him an email to tell him that. Wait…I hate the Steelers and all of their fans. I pick up their wallet in an attempt to find out the owner, I see a picture of the current Steelers Football team. MS drops their wallet and keeps going unknowingly. Obviously its in a vault for a reason, and these folks just deny you of it because? That is like Microsoft walking across my grass one day and I have a sign that says 'STAY OFF MY GRASS.' I really need to figure out a way to get a 48 hour period to get my stuff in the personal vault. Brothers I fought in combat with no longer here. Newest member of 'what the hell just happened!?' to my OneDrive account.

I'm also thinking of Microsoft teams or other services, where photos may be exchanged with third parties, which are then checked by AI and may lead to account suspension. Long speech short conclusion: Leave your photos out of the cloud – and I would go even further and say: Do without the cloud and Microsoft accounts – which is what this article is all about. Martin goes into more detail here and writes that the AI for evaluating files and pictures works similarly with Dropbox, Google, Microsoft etc. Then it's not long before photos from WhatsApp groups or the like are synchronized with OneDrive. Microsoft or the developers create apps like the OneDrive client in such a way that it automatically takes care of files on the hard drive and synchronizes them with the OneDrive storage. The problem is that you don't even have to actively upload such pictures to OneDrive as a user – you could control such things. Topless photos or children without nappies, with naked bodies (in the bathtub, playing games etc.), which are not objectionable in Germany, were banned in the USA – and the account suspension follows. This rubber paragraph is of course wonderful to apply to OneDrive content. Don't publicly display or use the Services to share inappropriate content or material (involving, for example, nudity, bestiality, pornography, offensive language, graphic violence, or criminal activity). Martin explicitly refers to Section 3 (Code of Conduct.) of the Microsoft Service Agreement, which every owner of a Microsoft account accepts when setting up a Microsoft account: Martin Geuß has therefore taken up this topic again and links to his German article at Dr. Konto-Sperrfalle OneDrive: Vorsicht vor dem Upload privater Fotos Now it has long been known that Microsoft scans the OneDrive contents for corresponding material, which the company believes is illegal or undesirable. Martin Geuß noticed that people affected had uploaded large amounts of photos to their OneDrive before the sudden block.

The second reason for a block might be content on OneDrive. But I had mentioned in my old blog post Stop: Arbitrary blocking of Microsoft Accounts VPN accesses as one reason. Martin and I are driven by the question why Microsoft seems to block accounts arbitrarily? The users affected didn't get a reason why the account has been shut down. A user facing this block, no longer exists. I have it picked up in my blog post Stop: Arbitrary blocking of Microsoft Accounts. And this is no joke, it happens – since 2019 we have collected over 40 cases. Martin Geuß and myself have discovered that Microsoft can block such an account for life at any time and without warning. in a private environment is taking a risk.
