At present, octopus and octopus-like derivatives are not banned per se.
In DX contests, multi-single class was re-defined by limiting the
number of band changes band per time period, removing any advantage
from the use of an octopus.
In SS, there is no limit on the number of band changes for
multi-operator so octopi are back in play.
