    NSFW subs protesting will do nothing but help reddit. I’m sure they wish it didn’t exist at all on the site.

      They should start pivoting to content that reference’s spez’s time a the mod of /r/jailbait. Like pictures of cheese in jail cells or police vans with “/r/jailbait mod applicants” written on the side.

      I heard u/spez, the CEO, affectionately called Pigboy, moderated r/jailbait. Which upon research, is a now defunct sub that specialized in questionable images of questionable age that should have been illegal.

      I could be wrong, but that is what I heard.

        Which is exactly why it’s so fucking weird that they explicitly allow 13 year old children to have reddit accounts in the ToS.

        If I was an enterprising clickbait journalist, I’d be going all in on the “reddit’s gradeschool to onlyfans pipeline” right now.
