We toggled to 18+ and sort of let nature take its course by only enforcing TOS. I say “we” but in reality I was the only active mod on either sub, so I do feel bad for getting awkwardtheturtle banned by association (lol). After the fact got the "It’s not ok to show people NSFW content when they don’t want to see it.

Mods should not make malicious changes to their communities, such as allowing rule-violating behavior or encouraging the submission of sexually explicit (18+) content in previously safe-for-work spaces."

This is my first post, also fuck Spez

      The piracy one cracks me up the most. They literally copied and pasted a blanket statement without even acknowledging it was r/privacy.

      They could have just ignored it and it wouldn’t have caused as much backlash.

      The best part is that many of these are huge, moneymaker subs from the front page. Surely the average facebook-y lurker that Spez was pandering to will have noticed the drama by now as well.

        They will have noticed it, but will they care?

          If they can’t get their fix of Marjorie Tailor Greene getting SLAMMED on twitter or rage bait clips of some woman making a really bad food for clicks with sped up music posted from TikTok, they might.
