They block VPNs from using the website at all, unless you're on an account that was registered already.
The new Reddit stopped allowing you to opt-out of "log outbound clicks" in the settings, so every link you click is now going through out.reddit.com first and keeping track of everything you do on the site.
If you are forced to reveal your actual IP, and they watch every link you click, privacy is completely dead on the website.
That's shit. But where can we go now for general discussions if privacy is dead on reddit? I assume Discord's worse at this and is logging every conversation.
It is. That said, doesn’t CCPA require them to wipe personally identifiable information after 30 days (i.e. logs)? Logs are interesting because typically they’re stored in write-once read-many type of data stores. In reality this means, most companies will just decide to wipe it to comply. They may, and probably do store anonymized data but if that can be traced back to a specific user technically they’d be breaking the law.
