Falsely banned - Innocent players are getting "Overwatch" banned

[𝕸𝖆𝖑𝖝𝖊𝖗]

As the title says. I have 4k hours in CSGO and have never cheated.
I woke up today to a game ban.
For further context, Im just a casual and havent touched competitive nor premier since before CS2 was announced.
So I just play casual.
And today I woke up to an "Overwatch" ban which, by the way, doesnt even exist in CS2.

By reading multiple threads and another one I made earlier that was locked by a moderator I've seen multiple other people experiencing the same exact issue.
So my guess is that this is a ban wave triggering false positives over innocent players.
Maybe it's a command on the autoexec that triggers it like what happened with m_yaw false bans.
We can only contact support and wait and pray for the innocent gamers to get unbanned.
This is beyond sad and pathetic, that innocent players get banned while cheaters still ruin the game.
All of this could be avoided with an anticheat like Valorant, but noooo, let's ♥♥♥♥ all of our customers over surely that will bring good will among our customers.
Anyways. Share your experience if this has happened to you today too. I've seen a lot of people complaining so I know I'm not alone.

Let's hope Valve fixes this soon.

Update: My account got unbanned!
Valve is slowly unbanning all false positives.

I'm still praying for y'all. Hoping Valve fixes this fast!

Finally valve doing something about the cheating problem it's been too much of a problem for too long :csgogun:

I hear that all the time and we are punished by the rage of the cheaters afterwards !

The vac wave is pointless if free accounts aint get a control that demands some more personal informations from the users !

Vac is pointless and a waste of time for as long the cheaters just can create a new account or buy one allready created on Ebay or Amazon or where ever their selling the steam accounts !

Just got vac banned on my 12 year old steam account when I've owned CSGO for 9 years and played almost 1900 hours. Valve can suck my nuts from the back.
