Not much later Blizzard banned me from Starcraft 2 that I paid with my own money for "account sharing" because I played at work a few times, which is just across the border in another country. They would not unban me until I changed my pseudonym to a real name and provided a copy of my passport to prove it. Fuck that. I always owned this copy. I had the original box and game code and everything. There were no other fraud indicators

I vowed to never give Blizzard money ever again and I kept that promise. I loved their games too death, it sucks

Facebook started it (before 2010).

Contemporaneous blog post about it from 2011
