A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn’t even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It’s late here so I’ll see how we proceed tomorrow.

        Hmm… wouldn’t restoring deliberately-user-deleted content directly break a bunch of “right to be forgotten”-style laws that Reddit’s technically obliged to follow? (GDPR, some California laws, etc)?

          Well this came up in the post where people said their Reddit posts were being restored. Even when the user deleted their account mind you. Basically there is something in the reddit TOS that with everything you post you give up your rights to that and it becomes reddit’s content. But that was from a US legal perspective. I’m not sure how that would hold up against GDPR laws.

          Edit, this is the post I’m referring to: https://lemmy.world/post/186613

            GDPR is about personal data. Not copyrighted content and licensing that copyrighted content to others (in this case to Reddit as per Terms of Use).

      We should start posting link to pirated content, magnets and such just to push reddit into permanently close the subreddit.

      They took our ship, so we’re gonna sink it.
