Social media like Reddit has stumbled upon the perfect way to censor unprofitable or anti-state content.

Superficially give moderation to users, then continually ban users when other users complain about them.

In this way with just a few dozen accounts anyone can control the narrative in their niche while Reddit claims they have no control.

Recently an independent chinese reporter has been banned from reddit using this technique.(0)

Did you mean to post that link? It doesn't give any information on a reporter being banned from reddit.
