Codex Successfully Appeals User Ban
tedmitew · x · 2026-07-12
A user fed their OpenAI ban notification to Codex to figure out why they were blocked and to draft an appeal. The outcome: 1. Codex analyzed the trigger, identifying it as likely being the user requesting an "API key for their own server." 2. It then directly wrote an appeal for the user. 3. The appeal was automatically approved within minutes. The poster summarized the process in one sentence: **"Banned by AI, convicted by AI, defended by AI, and pardoned by AI."**
