A leading company focused on virtual transformation.
Several Reddit accounts were compromised Friday afternoon, in a series of sub-reddit surpassed via pro-Trump posters.
A Reddit spokesman told Business Insider in an email that “a number of vandalized communities are being investigated. It turns out that the source of the attacks is the accounts of committed moderators. We are running to block those accounts and repair the affected communities.”
A Reddit article lists the affected subreddits, which come with r/Avengers yr/bannedfromclubpenguin, either of which demonstrates pro-Trump content at the time of writing. However, all Trump banners are displayed on all subreddits. For example, r/49ers and r/nfl are among the subreddits indexed as compromised, however, the headers of their pages show pro-Trump icons.
A r/Black Mirror post monitors that the sub-repertoire was compromised at a time and features the pro-Trump icon, its headline now presents the name of the TV show.
Reddit is the third hacked social network in recent weeks, after Twitter and YouTube, all seem to have other motivations.
