Sure you have. It's called 'virtuelles Hausverbot' and heise.de makes heavy use of it for their forums.
Most prominent case: Guenther Freiherr v. Gravenreuth was legally banned from heise.de forums with this instrument.
Here's the german wikipedia article: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtuelles_Hausverbot http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtuelles_Hausverbot
- itry 14y agoHave you read the article you link to? It explicitely says that you can NOT arbitrarily reject users. ("ein Hausverbot nicht willkürlich ausgeübt werden dürfe") The bans by Heise where not arbitrarily.
- kybernetyk 14y agoSo isn't this ban by facebook. The guy is acting against their TOS he has accepted.
