If there is ever an investigation, even if just journalistic, I hope you make sure you and others who have experienced this report and contribute to it even if it’s just as personal anecdotes. Reddit has been getting away with a lot of bullshit because they have all the power to hide it under the rug.
Though I’m glad Reddit is now feeling so confident about the abuses it’s performing that it’s willing to admit them, if only partially. Something peeking out from under the rug is a pretty big hint.
