I think this whole drama is on chess.com for allowing cheaters back on their platform and not having a public wall of shame. They've known that Hans had cheated online and never disclosed it. Now they are trying to fool us into thinking they're on the public's side. If you don't penalize cheaters early on then every kid that's promising at chess will start to cheat online to boost their stream views and to have enough income to focus fully on chess.

Well... then they would have to give up that sweet, sweet power and money. Chess.com on all fronts has been only acting in their own self interest ($) and not for the sport of the game. And now, hilariously, Magnus is not only in bed with that but he can't get out / is part of it.
