SHOULD CSGO BE FREE?

As a player who has purchased and played the game for several thousand hours; I believe that the issue of allowing the game to become free is ok.
However, with the release of the news that the game is free;
It will attract more cheaters to play as they won't have to spend money on the game to cheat again after their bans.
Even with the use of prime matchmaking; that creates another issue for another time.
