Rule 1:

Sexy pirate John Oliver artwork ONLY

Now I have been there for around 4-5 months and Reddit just killing piracy over there and making it a rule uploading this bullshit sucks.

It is not really a useful sub anymore, get off.

Yes I will be active on her though. It is the only useful thing now.

I still can't believe Reddit actually decided to do that. I thought they were going to ban the sub or keep it closed.

I figured given all the other subs to force back open, they should've just not risked the potential bad-press of appearing to endorse digital piracy right before going public as a company, and just stayed quiet and said nothing.

I imagine that they are doing this to more than just the piracy sub and it's widespread across reddit communities

They are for sure, there's posts about it everywhere, but they're reaching out individually to each sub (like, individually messaging the moderation teams, even), so it's not like there wasn't at least some conscious effort on their part with regards to r/piracy in particular.
