If they see a cartridge or .xci with the same ID being used in multiple places simultaneously they will ban the consoles and probably blacklist the cart ID and ban anyone who uses that cart/.xci in the future. But going online in CFW is a big risk anyway so most people stay offline so the chances of that actually happening are probably pretty low.
That's pretty fucked up. Imagine being some random guy, who has no idea about hacking Switches, and he just rents a game off Gamefly, or buys a used game from Gamestop, and gets banned, because a CFW user used the same cart before.

gamefly is still a thing? wow that takes me back to the 2009 tv ads i would see all the time
I've heard that they can ban cartridges as well as systems. however, it doesn't seem fair for the used market. though, buying a banned system unknowingly isn't very fair either. I know on sony's website, they state that bans won't even be lifted if the system is sold to someone else.

thats why Nintendo state to check back to the person you bought it from and let them know the console is banned. No one should be buying stuff used. I get it. Its "cheaper" but being that cheap will just end up being the worst mistake
There are both cartridge and console bans. Console bans are more common, normally when someone either cheats in an online game(like splatoon), or has has installed pirated games. After a while, Nintendo will ban the console's certificate, which prevents it from authenticating to N's servers. Gamecard bans are a lot less common. If multiple people go online with the same dump, each sending the gamecard's certificate to Nintendo, they can ban the certificate of the gamecard from going online.
cartridge bans actually happened back in 2018 when you look at the ban thread on this forum but since pirated games can't go online anymore since a Nintendo piracy patch in firmware 9.0, game card bans are practically unheard of.

I went to a garage sell last saturday, and the lady had a PS2 for sale, but she had a sign on it that said "Nintendo -$50", had to laugh, almost bought but she didn't know if worked, and she didn't have controller or cables, so I passed.
