This subhas been compromised. Look at mod list & post histories. You have been warned. Look at patterns.
Look at previous thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/pizzagate/comments/5diq3u/are_we_compromised/
Locked. The mod who locked it is 3 months old. This is exactly what happened in WikiLeaks subreddit.
This post will be locked/deleted. My only hope is that one of you sees this before it happens.

That denial from the security team was fishy as hell. Who talks like this when they're being connected to a pedophile ring? "Haha, thanks for noticing! :-p" Guess everything is just hunky dory! Move along folks nothing to see here!
PixelBot | 21 points
Nobody. Nobody acts like this. They have provided almost no proof at all, yet an army of people show up to support them.
I just want people to start looking at patterns.
bassdrumofdeath666 | 15 points
Exactly, lots of random bullshit showing up on this subreddit too(religion talk, lizard people). Compromised.
PixelBot | 20 points
Yep! Trying to make us look crazy, not only is it a common tactic, IT'S ONE THE GOVERNMENT SAID IT'S USING!
The lizard people, demons, etc are all distractions.
Stay strong man. Keep up the fight.

It's a lot less suspicious than going into full smear and denial mode like Alefantis. The fact that they went out of there way to post here shows a lot, frankly.
And the gematria thing was bullshit anyway. It's THE thing people make fun of conspiracy culture for: assigning numbers to letters, adding them, and making connections.

The accused posted here? Sorry stumbled here today, trying to get caught up..
ExistentialEnso | 3 points
Z-sec.info did. They aren't really "the accused." They were the ones with the weird cypher in their footer.

I'm not saying we aren't being infiltrated, but people have been advised to use throwaways for this sub. I'm thinking about doing it myself honestly...
PixelBot | 13 points
You should.
I'm happy to die over this. My family knows I wouldn't commit suicide.

I seriously doubt this will go away. They can not suppress something once it has become a meme. We have memed this into the public's consciousness. Slowly but surely we will red pill the entire world. Keep cheerleading. Become a knight of new and upvote everything, go in the comments, downvote any disinformation.

Probably not wise as a first post - but have you also noticed in the past ~4 days or so the increasing amount of nonsense posts? Stuff trying to look for signs in the code of Five Nights at Freddies, give me a break, lol. More or less watching from afar here, though.
PixelBot | 5 points
It's true.
But all I'm asking, is that the people, individually, look at the mod list + mod comment/action history. That's all.
androssfox | 4 points
Haha I hope I didn't come off as shutting you down - I meant that was actually the first time I've posted on the sub. Taking a look in any case...

The only thing compromising the subreddit are children (who contribute nothing) calling decent posters "shills" and tin-foil hatters posting irrelevant nonsense. The problem isn't censorship. It's brute force retardation/spam. And I suspect it's intentional. Gotta love the "troll" generation.

It is very interesting to see a moderator with no karma or post history.
They were secretive in that thread, too. I'm not going to "message the mods" because they "don't want people to panic".
This is a subreddit about a conspiracy theory, and they decide to be secretive about giving a no name account mod?
Yeah okay.

maybe its nothing but i saw a truck driving in the bay area with a symbol sort of like what you guys were talking about, I don't know if its anything, but I thought of you guys - a brand carried by wnder ice cream? http://imgur.com/a/nGE7s

If you're not posting in or subscribing to this sub using a disposable account I advise you to do so now. This isn't a topic to take lightly considering who is being discussed and how much influence they have. This is my oldest throwaway account. Good luck finding anything worthwhile in my history that confirms your baseless theories.

I was just added a few days ago. I haven't found any evidence of a compromise yet. I'll look into it.

Explanation: We want to create new accounts which don't have as much PII. Basic opsec. Some of the mods are using older burner accounts and we want them to be able to protect themselves. Come chat off reddit. Most of the mods are on matrix. Come into the reception room and have a chat
In the meantime I'm locking this. We honestly appreciate that we are being held accountable. Any further discussion about moderation or censorship needs to point to examples.

Theyre trying to kill the subreddit, its pretty obvious. Theyre also flooding the 4chan threads
Be vigilant

Yes they are! Have you noticed all the posts about religion on 4chan? Trying to divide people while arguing about religion.
That never happens on 4chan. Whole board is under psyop.

speaking as a mod, I can tell you just by looking at the mod queue that you are absolutely off base with this assertion. If the subreddit were in anyway 'compromised' its either from so high up with admins where they have their own filtering system we mods can't see or more likely a front end attack from people like you constantly claiming this subreddit is compromised and to avoid paying it any attention.

PixelBot | 12 points | Nov 18 2016 02:31:40
Woah. Why so offended!? Not a personal attack
If you are honest, wouldn't you want a system like this in place? I'm genuinely asking.
This is a discussion - is love to hear a downside to implementing an early alert system?

ned_harriman | 10 points | Nov 18 2016 02:47:47
You are right we need to set up a way of setting up an early alert system so if the mods get locked out we can communicate. I can verify what /u/pizzapartywithkids said, that right now we aren't being censored (unless it's done in a way that us mods cannot see).
Right now our only off-reddit systems are the voat and the chat on the matrix protocol - come in and say hi, as if you have a solution for communicating to reddit users AFTER it's been compromised (some kind of canary) would be amazing.

I actually thought about this a bit in the last half hour and I think its a good idea we sign our posts, at least if we are speaking officially with a self-identifiable hash.

Should we be banned or removed, we can provide this as proof of our identities.

Brilliant. Why not just use GPG signatures? Perfect solution

pizzapartywithkids | 1 points | Nov 18 2016 03:19:02
*PGP
The security is much better with PGP because its a dual key system but it would get pretty messy if we were signing posts with a public key every time.
Here's my same hash in the public PGP key

Let's discuss this over matrix and make a good plan that all mods agree on.
