I'll be very interested in hearing any "official" clarification on the subject. I admit that I can't see any situation where continued library access with a flagged account wouldn't be precarious at best.
I would hope that even with a closed account that you could still download all previous content through Kindle for PC, and then sideload all content to any new reader you would have. So you could get around the issue if they don't allow you to register a new reader you purchased elsewhere.

Of course if you're a customer that doesn't know about Alf or even how to sideload books and always relied on Amazon to just stick it all on your Kindle, not sure that's any consolation.

But this is speculation on my part, I don't know anyone who had their account closed. While I don't think I'd ever get my account banned, I'm curious too what it really means for access to your existing content.
