AMD's Anti-Lag+ Driver Update Causes Counter-Strike 2 Bans

TL;DR Summary
AMD has removed its latest graphics driver version after Valve warned that players using AMD's Anti-Lag+ technology would be banned under Valve's anti-cheat rules in games like Counter-Strike 2. Anti-Lag+ alters the game code itself, triggering bans and crashes in various competitive online games. Nvidia users have not reported similar issues with their Reflex system. Valve has acknowledged the unintentional cheating and will reverse bans once AMD releases an update.
