I've been meaning to say this, there has been surge of influx of users recently. Maybe this has to do with it? My VPN IP has been targeted. This isn't a problem if you switch to a different location as certain VPN IP addresses are flagged by websites. VPN providers tend to change the addresses so this shouldn't be a long term problem.

Since the debacle of Reddit and curtailing of privacy in their site, I log in to Reddit via Tor on Onion. It's awkward to do so, but I won't go back to the original site. They have gone in the way of Facebook with predatory harvesting of data.
