Is there a risk of remove a user from a SPO Site using the GUI: _layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0 or the PowerShell: Remove-SPOUser?
Ex: Do we lose trace of modification or history from that user?
Thank you

Removing user from membershipgroupid=0 in the site level will remove users from the site level. The user still be present within SPO and can access other sites where he is not removed from. When you remove user from here, he is actual removed from user information list (which is present at each site level).
Check out this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/remove-users#remove-people-from-the-userinfo-list
this talks about how to properly remove user from SPO and then from each site level User Info List (they still have reference here).
Hi, @Bistro-3455 ,
For SharePoint Online, removing a user from group or site only means the user is no longer a member of the group/site. He does not have the permission as a group member anymore. You can grant the user the same permission again later. The user still is a member of the tenant and you can find the user in Azure AD. You will not lose the trace of modification or history from that user. The files modified by the user will still get displayed as modified by him/her.
