Community request to undo false positive ban #freeazarole

Let's start on a positive note. As Ingress players we all value the effort that has been made with anti-cheat systems. We, as a community, understand the importance of Fair Play and also understand the technical difficulties that come with it. No system is perfect, so fortunately there is also moderation and appeal.
Besides that; cheaters might get caught by the community via reports. When the community is sure something isn't Fair Play the community reacts by reporting a player. In this case the community asks you to correct a false positive.
We as a community (both resistance and enlightened) are sure something has gone wrong here. Now we have an innocent victim who loves the game as we do. A player who has a clean trackrecord, a positive playing attitude and has been an asset to the community for years and years.
We refuse to believe, that you are unwilling to listen to your players. Your fan base. The same people that travel, organise, pay and communicate. The people that helped make this great game.
This sets a scary precedent for other players; will they get banned too, not knowing what they've done wrong?
On behalf of all the players that support restoring his account; please #FreeAzarole
To show our support we will share our #FreeAzarole pictures and stories on the socials, in the hope he can rejoin our awesome game.
Kind regards,
Your XF Community

Nice to see some true community effort. Fully agree. #FreeAzarole
Please #FreeAzarole
Whatever triggered the ban for agent Azarole, it was wrong. Please set things straight Niantic!
#FreeAzarole
#FreeAzarole, investigate false positive ban markers.

I think dialogue will add to the quality of this game. We all fear for bans atm. I don't want to lose friends and community like this.

Niantic, please have another look at this case. Azarole is no cheater, for sure.
#FreeAzarole
#FreeAzarole start the dialogue (with the community, so the false positives can be minimized)

This keeps happening. Not just to Azarole, but to many other players as well. Something needs to be seriously looked into and corrected asap. These actions are harming the community that Ingress thrives from.
Seeing the track record of buggy updates there's no doubt there's some shenanigans going on with that so called anti cheat as well. Plain sight cheating gets looked over, customer support is useless and braindead and then oh let's let our possibly buggy system ban a bunch of high roller players and roll with it

Yes please. Azarole has been nothing but a positive influence in the game since he joined so many years ago. #FreeAzarole.

This is not right, without explanation.. What was the cause? Do we have to fear the ban?? We want to play because we like the game!

Undo this false positive, please.

I've came in contact with Azarole almost 1 month after I started playing, he is one of the most driven community leaders and we shared laughs and tears together. It is devastating to think that he got a ban without any leads of what he might have done wrong. Will I be next?
It makes me lose my motivation to go out and play, pondering if it will be all in vain if I will be the next victim of the mysterious banhamner.
Please Niantic, communicate and reach out about your policies and inform in a transparent matter, before you destroy the game I care so much about.
