Maybe this will spur reddit to allow users to create accounts over Tor? That's a feature I'd actually consider paying for.

Stop putting your PII into other people's computers. Yes, its harder than it should be to get away with using just a username and password; This doesn't automagically make it right or wrong to do so.

It's so cool how we now live in the sort of dystopia that, in the USA of all places, where we are taught from a young age the wonders of freedom of expression, our government will weaponize itself against dissent.

That's what you voted for, freedumb-loving right-wingers. Thanks so much.
