Sounds like a bill of attainder, which is explicitly forbidden in the Constitution.

Could you please explain the narrative for the rest of the class, so we don’t have to guess whatever it is you’re implying?

These ppl are not able to do anything better but to interfere with the app we use. So want to kick them out.
