Hours ago, I posed an idea to fellow reddit refugees elsewhere. If the blackout proved to be ineffective or Spez and his team of admin ball lickers decided to play god with the database and forcibly remove the people behind the blackout (like they have done), my idea was simple: Malicious compliance.
If Spez wants us to use the platform and official app, fine. But if we are going to be forced to go back public, the we erase everything of value to the walking bell-end spez followed by uploading useless garbage. If he wants to be an ego maniac, then by malicious compliance, we use the platform according to the rules *incorrectly* and devalue the content.
When the co-founder Aaron (kn0thing) Swartz sadly took his own life when facing 35 years or longer in federal prison for a WikiLeaks dump, spez wiped his existence from the platform; we should have known what kind of person he was. Aaron believed in a free internet and freedom of speech and information whereas spez only saw the internet as a money making tool. So I say it's time for a movement.
The blackout is failing, the time for Operation kn0thing is now. Reddit holds value to spez, not the communities that keep it alive. So let's make it worth his opinion of the people. #makeRedditnothing #Operationkn0thing
