| I'm pretty sure if your neighbor had an Amazon (or whatever account) banned in the past on a specific IP and then you go and use that same IP and make a new account doesn't necessarily mean your account is banned too.
Paint this scenario - customer at ISP has his account banned on IP 10.10.10.10, and then cancels his service on a Friday.
Monday you have new service going in at your house and you get IP 10.10.10.10 that had his account banned.
The likelihood of that account getting banned as well is probably super rare.
The IP is not the only thing these companies go off of. It's fingerprints on devices, the way the account is setup (bot like or human like), etc.
Lots of variables. I'm sure 50% of all the IPv4's in the world have had millions of different accounts banned and it's fine.
