It should be easy to verify - open the public modlog (https://lemmy.world/modlog) and find a random user that has been banned recently, view their profile / comments and check if the icon shows up. If the icon really means that they are, in fact, banned, then it should show up every time.
....that being said, I've never seen that icon before. Are you using an app or the desktop version? Do you get a mini pop up when you hover the mouse pointer over the icon?
Hm... the only related info I can find is that it is called a "no account(s)" icon here: https://fontawesomeicons.com/svg/icons/no_accounts#ex-tab3 ...but no explanation about what exactly it means in the context of jerboa/lemmy/android.
My guess is it means you can’t log in or aren’t logged in. It could also be block user or blocked user. It’s just a crossed out person, so it could be a number of things.
