 =====================================================
 
+First and foremost, **this is not a problem exclusive to Telethon.
+Any third-party library is prone to cause the accounts to appear banned.**
+Even official applications can make Telegram ban an account under certain
+circumstances. Third-party libraries such as Telethon are a lot easier to
+use, and as such, they are misused to spam, which causes Telegram to learn
+certain patterns and ban suspicious activity.
+
+There is no point in Telethon trying to circumvent this. Even if it succeeded,
+spammers would then abuse the library again, and the cycle would repeat.

 The library will only do things that you tell it to do. If you use
 the library with bad intentions, Telegram will hopefully ban you.

 Telegram may also ban virtual (VoIP) phone numbers,

+More recently (year 2023 onwards), Telegram has started putting a lot more
+measures to prevent spam (with even additions such as anonymous participants
+in groups or the inability to fetch group members at all). This means some
+of the anti-spam measures have gotten more aggressive.
+
+The recommendation has usually been to use the library only on well-established
+accounts (and not an account you just created), and to not perform actions that
+could be seen as abuse. Telegram decides what those actions are, and they're
+free to change how they operate at any time.

 If you want to check if your account has been limited,
 simply send a private message to `@SpamBot`_ through Telegram itself.
