Claude team confirms ban was due to supported-regions policy

The banned user says the Claude team confirmed the ban stemmed from the supported-regions policy, and questions why DHH openly using Claude Code from China was not treated the same.

someone from the Claude team got back to me confirmed I was banned because of the supported regions policy meanwhile DHH was just in China and openly said he was using Claude Code through Tailscale if China is a hard restriction, shouldn’t it be the same rule for everyone? not trying to get DHH banned lol just trying to figure out if the policy is actually a policy or a lottery or selective enforcement with better branding
