Where was this report say 1 month ago, before a certain Magnus Carlsen lost to Niemann over the board?

Is Chess.com gonna reveal similar reports for every other player or is this privilege only for those who are accused by a chess.com part owner of OTB cheating.



This report is incredibly underwhelming. I only see Hans cheating before 2020-08-12 from the same chart the WSJ published earlier today. To me it seems he was banned again this year for the same offenses yet complied with chess-com terms (save for not sending an email).


They must have started investigating when Carlsen protested a month ago.
