How this user kept Claude accounts unbanned: domain email routing + self-hosted IP
vista8 · x · 2026-10-29
vista8 shares the setup behind never having a Claude account banned: subscribing at the $20 tier with two accounts in rotation, registering via a custom domain email routed through Cloudflare Email Routing to Gmail, using a self-hosted proxy on a Vultr server that avoids verification prompts, keeping 2-3 free backup accounts, and paying via overseas App Store balance (or a ZhongAn card on Google Play). He uses the official client, never changed timezone/language, and chats in Chinese — while acknowledging it might just be survivorship bias.
