Earlier today some journal sites revealed leaks how the mod team of Antiwork are FBI informants going back to 2011 and lulzsec. Allegations of r*pe and community arrests. Mods get removed, a lot of posts get personally deleted and automoderated. The subreddit automod starts deleting any mention of pastebin, archive, fbi.
Screenshots of one of the mods that was removed and permanently banned for trying to raise awareness of the issue:
The over 2.2 million member subreddit /r/antiwork, which was subject to a large swarm of trolls after a Fox News interview in January 2022, appears to have been infiltrated by an FBI informant who may have enabled multiple arrests in the anti-authoritarian community. Laurelai Bailey, an infamous former mod, has likely committed serial r*pe without facing any legal repercussions, and appears to actively collaborate with the FBI.
When /r/antiwork mods voted to ban Bailey, they were subsequently purged from their mod status by Baileyβs friend /u/TeiaRabishu, who is still the top mod. Anarchist mods say that Teia has used this as an opportunity to divert anti-work theory from its anarchist foundations and co-opt it with liberal theory instead, evidently enforcing this through FBI surveillance on the subreddit.
The alt accounts HyponoTransgirl, Bimbopolitics, and EphraelStern have all been linked to the same informant: Laurelai Bailey. Bailey is well known among the hacker community for helping the FBI charge Julian Assange and faking her own death, potentially to avoid r*pe charges.
The following documents show Baileyβs relations with the FBI, evidence of r*pe, and testimony from /r/antiwork mods:

God darn... It's kind of funny - my earliest connection with reddit metasphere was via an argument with Laurelai in SRD. Later on - that obviously continued, as SRD at the time pretty much allowed anything and was essentially a thunderdome, with SRDine as a species of spineless, humourless pearl-clutcher nowhere to be found yet.
Interestingly - I got perma'd from reddit on the day I posted an /u/EphraelStern slack leak on /r/stupidpol. Technically I was perma'd for evasion, but that was obvious bullshit, since I specifically avoided using alts since my prior temp for using an alt in SRD. If xe really is curated by glowies - it would make sense...

Imagine getting permaβd and not creating another account.

Oh, I did, loads. But now they have fingerprinted me to a point that I get shadowed before managing to post a comment.

Use a clean chrome/Firefox install (on Mac just use the beta version or Chrome Canary which will use a different profile automatically) with your usual set of extensions (just a few of the important oneβs) and use Mullvad VPN with the browser.
With a combination of a clean browser and new IP they canβt fingerprint you. Unless maybe you use it with some fringe OS then use a User agent spoofer via web extensions to make it look like Microsoft Edge or something.

no you dont have to delete your old one. You just have to install a different version (if you use regular chrome just use Chrome Beta or Chrome Canary or Firefox Nighly etc)

Installing chrome canary or beta and a VPN app takes 10 - 15min at most? To basically never worry about getting permabanned.

they can only fingerprint your browser + ip.
reset your modem to get new ip and install chrome/firefox/edge or whatever as a side browser to use reddit on. uninstall and reinstall when you get banned to get new account

Use a mobile proxy. They canβt ban mobile ips without impacting tons of innocent users.

I made 2 accounts, one to be nice and the other experimental. The experimental one got password locked but the nice one wasn't affected. I haven't posted with it yet tho, but it didn't trigger reddit's account-connecrion-ban. This is Brave+VPN.

get canvas blocker extension (for both chromium based and ff) randomize the canvas/or block it. Works great. Just don't marseypost in SUSsy threads. you'll be fine

To ne extra safe use FF and also this extension https://add0n.com/useragent-switcher.html . Set reddit to open in a specific container always and keep changing the UA once in a while for that container.
IP bans aren't a thing imo since the advent of VPNs and people getting random public ips, they are not very reliable since you might block off someone else when they come from the same ip

This is what worked for me. My accounts would get insta-nuked ever since i colored a few cat pixel in /r/place, but deleting the cache + cookies made the difference.
