I can't drive my car as soon as I run a red light. The punishment seems harsh.

  I feel like a closer analogy would be "I can't drive my car as soon as I install flame-thrower exhaust". What would cause a user in normal operation of a switch to be permanently banned form the Nintendo network?

    Isn't the most direct analogy: a stolen car refuses to start? But I would still download a car if I could. side note: What does flamethrower mean in this case? Some potentially totally legitimate car modifications (e.g., two-step launch control) have the side effect of dumping unburnt fuel into the exhaust, creating a "flamethrower" effect. Not sure if two-step violates noise or "flamethrower" laws first though ;).
