BEFORE YOU READ! If you're viewing this thread because you're concerned about your privacy and the safety of your account, I recommend downloading VitaToolbox. Which you can find in the pinned "Listing of All VPKs" thread.
So far I've seen little-to-no info on reported bans that I can really believe. It's obvious that you shouldn't do things like sync your trophies or go online with backups. But occasionally, accidents happen.
I'd like to write a list with some detailed info including:
1. What might've caused the ban. (Homebrew, trophy sync, playing backups, etc.)
2. Region (What Country do you live in?)
3. Console ban and account ban? Or just account ban? (Does Sony console ban vitas?)
And perhaps a few other details if you'd suggest. This OP will be re-written once I gather more information, and I hope to gather more information/reports across other websites and boards.
How do I know if I'm banned?
If you're getting a number of different error codes when trying to access or sign into PSN and you know you did something wrong; Chances are you might've been banned. See the link below for a number of error codes relating to suspension/ban:

(Thanks Vampirex!)
Hopefully this collection of information will be useful in the coming months. It would really help determine how many safety precautions that users will have to take when using this homebrew, and hopefully put those who are already very careful and worried at ease, as well.
And I apologize if there's already a thread like this. I'd like to keep this actively updated, though.
