Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

😪 sadge. Hopefully something comes better out of this 🤷

Seems like reddit openly aknowledging they have this kind of power, control, and willingness to take administrative action in a piracy sub would open them up to some DMCA issues for hosting it.

Wow, didn't figure they'd go so blatantly mask off this early on. They must be nervous.

Also dumb. Have they never dealt with pirates before? Cut off one head and two more grow to replace it. Good luck you shmucks.

lol imagine being so desperate for the protest to come to an end that you are even targeting a community that engages in legally questionable activity.

I'm sure the process of determining what mods to DM was automated, but even so, it's still pretty funny to me.

This should somehow be made known outside the fediverse, to bring more people away from reddit and to here

Well, good thing that you prepared well in advance and have already built a nice alternative.

Reddit is done

I reinvited you in case you care.

I think this calls for the subreddit to get rm -rf /*'d so that reddit gets nothing.

it's almost like actions have consequences. having a fucking tantrum over app got you spanked. what did we learn? play nice with the man that can do that to your accounts. if you care that is.

It looks like the sub is now in restricted mode - is that the doing of the other members of the mod team or is admin trying to control outrage?

reddit stunk anyway, virtually every community was inaccessible to new users and to top it, it wasn't new user friendly with all the stupid perm bans without explanations

Look at them using the community and users as a shield and a bargaining chip.

Oh thank God, i first thought that the reddit navy entered Lemmy. i don't care about what happens on reddit, in fact, i'e be happy if they'd harm it.

But: can't mods nuke the subreddit history before they're demoded?

Why not just start allowing direct links to pirated content on the subreddit?

Reddit proverbially taking their ball and going home lmao

Reddit is fucked. I have a stash of memes to post when it’s time to brigade.

Archive and delete is the only language those scurvy dogs speak.
