This is a reminder to everyone. If you or someone you know is still on Reddit. Use an extension to bulk deleted everything before deleting the account. You're friends and family are not safe posting on reddit.

I am no fan of reddit but in this case Reddit appears to have championed this users anonymity going so far as to actively draw the ire of the administration.

Reddit refused to comply with the initial administrative subpoena
the Federal government came back with this grand jury subpoena and warned Reddit not to disclose the existence of the subpoena or they’d consider it interference in federal law enforcement
Reddit complied with this new legally binding subpoena, but did not comply with the demand to keep it a secret. In the contrary, they immediately alerted the user of the subpoena which allowed him time to immediately lawyer up.

You’re not wrong that you’re not safe posting on Reddit, but if this case is any indication you’re not any less safe posting in Reddit than any other site, including Lemmy.

Isn’t Reddit owned by China? WTF is Trump going to do?

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

Reddit is headquartered in San Francisco

Reddit is owned by Vanguard, Blackrock, JP Morgan, etc

You'd really think they could afford hiring some moderators.
