Bans caused by false anti-cheat flags while having connection issues to servers

I believe that there is a problem happening in apex at the moment that involves the anti-cheat flagging people falsely for reasons like connections to the server and reconnecting to them after being disconnectedand then banning them for the reason of "Gameplay Enhancement" . A previous pro player Edam_FPS was recently banned twice and unbanned twice for the same reasons. i believe other people as far back as 2 months have been experiencing this issue and im unsure if EA or Respawn have any knowledge of its case. I was falsely banned myself on the 21st of Jan while i was in the firing range after a tdm match, i was simply aim training when the ban occured and the only things that i had open/used at the time of me playing was "Crosshair X", Steam Launcher settings: 

-dev -console -preload -novid -cl_forcepreload -high -fullscreen +fps_max 180 +mat_letterbox_aspectgoal 0 +mat_letterbox_aspect_threshold 0 +building_cubemaps 1 +cl_fovscale 1.7

i also had Aimlabs open at the time of the ban but ive used both apps before simultaneously and have had no issues prior. I have also used exitlag in the past with no issues of conflict with apex.

I have already submitted my appeal from the ban  but i am making this post to highlight the issue that many other players maybe experiencing at this time. i cannot account for their personal interactions with the game but the frequency and timings make it likely that others maybe getting falsely banned in the same manner.

    My account was falsely banned on apex legends, mid game, I haven’t said inappropriate words to anyone and of course never cheated but yea got banned, my level was over 200 and also spent 300$ to get heirlooms and now I’m banned. I don’t play ranked and my kd is below one and my highest dmg was around 2.5k. I used to see posts of people getting false banned but never did I expect that to happen to me.  I provided proof of me playing on my account and yet these support team rejects my appeal and says they can’t provide any proof of me cheating or anything that leads to the ban. Im so sorry that I’m not an apex content creator with over 100k subscribers of course y’all wouldn’t care if the player being banned was a person who isn’t a content creator. Anyways that’s it I can’t appeal anymore so I gotta take the L.  Ea support team is bunch of bots
