Reddit has just started blocking *the entire website* unless you either log out or verify your age for some accounts
(Just to be cautious: I know that the topic of this posts isn't related to the topic of this subreddit and if you need to take it down then feel free to do so. Im posting this because I saw that this community became more of a hub for privacy stuff and this is the exact topic of this post. Also this subreddit is hosted on reddit which may be about to restrict everyone from posting)
(video was taken by my brother who's account was blocked)
For context, about an hour ago they tried to access a reddit post from r / skamteboard or something like that, a subreddit that had no nsfw whatsoever, but this happened. I've tried going to the home page (by the url), tried using old.reddit.com, it redirects to this exact page. So theyve blocked off the entire access unless
- You ~~verify~~ send them your information of who you are, where you are and other stuff (in case you forgot https://vmfunc.re/blog/persona)
- You use the website without logging in I am *yet* still able to view the website normally both the nsfw posts and the general content but id say its a matter of time when theyll roll it out to everyone's account ### Also for the technical details Country was set to Poland (european union), which is the place the account was being used The option to view nsfw was already set to be active Yet this happened I am posting this from my own account (ive got the video from my brothers whose account was blocked) and technically ive done everything the same but I used the app on ios when this change rolled out so i was able to use the function from apple to "Share the app range" based off the age set in my apple account. And apple doesnt require age verification *yet* This might be the reason because they say that he hadn't recieved a notification like this
so the concept of *anonymous* internet comes to an end
And probably the concept of free speech on it
Yippee! Wohoo! Yeah!
