News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Cool trick. Now do personal emails.

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Genuinely curious how knowing personal emails would be useful as opposed to the work emails. I'm not even sure how knowing the work emails is useful, but I'm always eager to be educated.

Well, not that I approve of the practice, but you could find site logins that the email is used in, breaches that it's been in (potentially finding (old) passwords).

With that info, if not for identity theft directly, can be used for fishing and profiling.

Ah, gotcha. I picked up a reddit permaban for mentioning in a comment that someone else in another sub had found the initial 4 DOGE kiddos' phone numbers and parents' addresses by viewing their public social media profiles and GitHubs. Played with the idea of sending each of them No Thank You cards in the mail, but the permaban made me hesitant to dish out more mischief.
