I was a bit hunter on reddit and was asked to mod /r/kittengifs because of my ability to find them. There were like 5 legitimate posts in 6 months
So, tangentially related to this, you know r/kitty? The subreddit where every post was a picture of a cat, and the only word permitted in the title and any comments was "Kitty"?
I'm convinced that was being used for covert communications. Run those pictures through Outguess or something.
There was r/catsstandingup(?) as well that just responded "cat." Never considered the conspiratorial angle there...
If I cared about reddit anymore, I'd dig into that
I mean I can think of worse ways to send messages to my sleeper cells across the surface web. I used to watch The Modern Rogue.
