Account Disabled for No Reason

This is unnaceptable.  I played this game all day, took a break for diner then when I came back I had an error that my Steam overlay was turned off and said I had to turn it on and restart the game.  I have always had my Steam overlay turned off because I don't like it and that includes since I started playing BF6 on launch day.  So fine I turned it on then get a message that my account is disabled for 7 days. No reason. No email. No notification. No penalty in my history. Just blocked from playing for no apparent reason. I can't even play the single player campaign.  

It is completely unacceptable and bad business to block someone from a product they paid $100 for and for absolutely no given reason or cause. I don't cheat and I didn't vioalte any EA terms.  The only other thing I did today was plug in my joystick to see if I could use it for heli. But even after that I played for several hours.  I have seen people claiming they got disabled/banned/flagged for plugging in a controller.  If that was the reason, or if it was something to do with the Steam overlay that is super bogus that now I have to go through trying to submit a ticket for which i might not even get a reply to for up to ten days and it says I am disabled for 7 days.  Why do I have to go through this or be treated ths way?

What is the deal here? Is this a bug with Javelin? Is anyone else getting this problem?

    I just read something someone was saying about Javelin detecting Steam overlay as a game enhancement and initiates a false flag.  Did the game seriously just force me to turn on Steam overlay and then disable my account because of it?

    I've also been false banned for "Gameplay Enhancement" after 3 days of playing BF6. Absolutely ridiculous that their anticheat is false flagging and permanently banning hundreds of players accounts and they refuse to properly investigate. Can't wait for this class action lawsuit.

    What bothers me the most about this is two fold;

    1. I paid $100 for a product and get locked out of it entirely for 7 days with no reason at all given.  I can't even play the single player campaign.  Even if it was something like I was toxic in chat, suspend me from chat not the whole product.   The worst thing I can recall saying in chat is stuff like "man this hit reg is bs" or "wtf is with bullets not hitting"  stuff like that which is not directed at anyone or being offensive to sensitive liberal feelings.
    2. Since I know it wasn't a cheat, since I don't cheat and if it was it'd have been a perma ban and I know I wasn't abusive in chat that leaves something to do with having my joystick plugged in, the steam overlay it forced me to turn on, my nvidia overlay, ghub software.... who the hell knows because they didn't say so how can I be confident it isn't just going to happen again?

    7 days. Can you read?  Cheaters get perma banned.  Thank you for your pathetic troll attempt.
