I'm not saying she deserved it. Sorry if it sounded dismissive.

  Sorry to sound critical of you. As I said, I almost posted it. There is a lesson here about how essentially innocent people get caught up by draconian and unappealable corporate policies. In this case, about video licensing. And, seriously, there's a whole VPN industry focused on evading geo-restrictive content availability. But being naive, she didn't think enough like a criminal. And used a valuable Microsoft account. And seriously, If she had thought it through, she could have used a different VPN, and a different persona with a throwaway Microsoft account. And her primary account would be fine now. I do try to reach naive people like her. To explain the concept of compartmentalization, and the basics of using virtual machines (VMs) with VPNs and/or Tor. To create unassociated personas. Show them how to play safe. But it's hard. I don't speak Turkish. And I can not move freely in meatspece as Mirimir.
