Ironically, Huffman doesn’t seem to be in the Epstein files. This isn’t because he isn’t a pedophile-- he very likely is-- but he simply wasn’t important enough of a person for them to invite him or even talk about him.

4chan had approximately 10x the users as reddit did in 2011 when Epstein and Poole connected.
But ya fuck u/spez. Even the biggest losers on earth hate u/spez

oh 🫣 I’ve probably heard that before but I must not have committed it to memory
Well that explains why Reddit was so ridiculously pro-porn and porn riddles in general.

I’m not defending the guy but wasn’t it that a mod of that subreddit added him as a mod as a joke? I don’t think spez created it.

Good. Bury reddit for protecting thdw pedophiles in the name of corporate greed.

This will surely stop reddit in it’s tracks!

Cheering on websites getting fined for the reason of internet censorship. I know Spez is a prick but I don’t want the UK cracking down on internet privacy.
We must protest against the labour party’s corruption.

This seems like one of those cases where you wish both sides could lose. Reddit are up to no good, but lack of identity document demands isn’t it.

Garbage fine by tyrannical government trying to police what you do online. Stop age verification!

Not enough. Not nearly.

The article says Reddit isn’t protecting the privacy of children while contradicting itself by saying it lacks age verification. Which leads to user profiling and data breaches.

As much as I hate Reddit this is just continuation of the UK government steamrolling and destroying the free Internet, ruining the adult experience.
One of the wonders of the Internet was that it was wildly unregulated - if you wanted it and you could disable safesearch you could get it, with the caveat of ISP-enforced content locks on all mobile subscriptions with data under the name of a legal child (under 18), workplace and school security and filters, unremovable Safesearch on most search engines etc. Broadband required an adult. I couldnt wait until I turned 18 so I could finally access many sites for porn, news, gaming, forums and anything containing keywords without being blocked.
In short there is significant existing protection in place and we know that this is simply more evidence of Orwellian enforcement.
