My developer account has been disabled and I want to appeal
I am the developer of FastF1, an open source Python package for downloading and analyzing Formula 1 race results, timing data and telemetry. The package is widely used in the fan community for independent analysis of results. For some advanced features, the addon requires users to authenticate with their Formula1/F1TV account. Since their services don't have an open login API, a companion addon is required to allow users to sign in using their browser and the official website.
I have just noticed that my developer account has been banned and the addon was blocked in Firefox. I have not received any email about this and don't know why exactly this decision was made. I'd like appeal this and reinstate my account and the addon, but I don't know how to proceed from here.
FastF1 and the companion addon are fully open source and intend no harm to users. https://github.com/theOehrly/Fast-F1 https://github.com/theOehrly/fastf1-companion
I hope this problem can be resolved.

Hi,
Sorry for that. There are also some other reports of extension developers having their accounts banned, and the add-ons team is looking in this. I'll keep you updated (please note that they need some time to investigate).

I have a problem too. I do not public extension so why ban me ?

Hi louis phan, could you please PM me your email so that I can pass it to the team to take a look?
We’ve been experiencing a large amount of malicious users and activity related to extensions submissions and took action yesterday to make sure users visiting addons.mozilla.org are not exposed to that.
Unfortunately, a few legitimate accounts were caught in this as well.
Please PM Denys with your AMO account names and addon IDs.
