From what I understand, Reddit admins were getting tonnes more takedowns than usual (for underage pics etc), which was becoming a cat-and-mouse game, and took the pragmatic approach of just banning the whole subreddit.

The Reddit communities reaction this whole thing has been pretty sickening - enough for me to block it in my hostsfile. This was just the law straw I guess.

Prior to this, I've also seen them take down specific subreddits that linked to CP, so I don't think this purge is that out of the ordinary for them.
