It took months and months of public criticism and internal controversy, and general tumult for the site’s management to decide that “WatchNiggersDie” did not belong on Reddit. Today we removed communities dedicated to animated and a handful of other communities that violate the spirit of the policy by making Reddit worse for everyone else: /r/CoonTown, /r/WatchNiggersDie, /r/bestofcoontown, /r/koontown, /r/CoonTownMods, /r/CoonTownMeta. I believe these policies strike the right balance. 60 40 40 comments Best Add a Comment AmethystWarlock 7 yr.

What happened to the Gawker I've been seeing some posts regarding it and I'm confused as to what has happened. Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, sued Gawker in 2012 after the website published a one-minute, 41-second excerpt of the video, which Clem recorded using his home security system. Today, in addition to applying Quarantines, we are banning a handful of communities that exist solely to annoy other redditors, prevent us from improving Reddit, and generally make Reddit worse for everyone else. We will Quarantine communities whose content would be considered extremely offensive to the average redditor. One new concept is Quarantining a community, which entails applying a set of restrictions to a community so its content will only be viewable to those who explicitly opt in.

He comes across as condescending manipulator who is over personalizing himself (my kids asked about this case, I'm a father) in an attempt to garner some goodwill from the jury.

When Daulerio published the infamous Hulk Hogan sex tape, and Hogan successfully sued over invasion of privacy, Denton and the company protected themselves with bankruptcy filings.
