Reddit beats film industry again, won’t have to reveal pirates’ IP addresses (arstechnica.com)

While we can be pretty confident that Reddit has its own motivations (i.e. self-interest) for fighting these lawsuits, this is still a good news story for pirates.

Are you logged in? I can't access Reddit with a VPN if I'm not logged in

replace 'www' with 'old' in the address and it's fixed.

Thanks! Confirmed that it works with old reddit, just doesn't work at all for me using regular new layout, which sucks anyway.

I can access old.reddit.com with VPN. The new shitty layout will block you but there are browser extensions to automatically redirect. I'm never logged in since I deleted my accounts a few months ago.

I've been using a VPN with an account recently. Works fine.
