Recently (around 20:00 in Japan) , I asked some simple questions about microeconomics using your brand-new ChatGPT API. But just after I asked the third question, you sent an email themed “Access Terminated”, but I haven’t asked for anything illegal or harmful content. I am a personal user, and I never attempt to post the response generated from your API. I would like to know the EXACT reason why I am banned. If your system misjudged the situation, please recover my account, thanks.
Here is the email you sent me:
