UPDATE: So apparently the former r/jailbait mod that is The CEO purged the sub's mods and forced the sub to re-reopen under the old rules.
Mission failed! We'll get them next time!

Oh. my. god. That is hilarious! Looks like other subreddits are joining in on the shenanigans too hahaha
It's r/interestingassfuck now
I wonder if all this malicious compliance is also gonna screw with all that AI research people were interested in doing, if all the topics have essentially shifted....

This is hilarious.
Waiting for mem with r/spez saying "wait no, not like this"
'interesting as fuck' sounds a lot different to someone from India
The worst thing for Reddit is that they don't advertise against NSFW content. This has major revenue implications for Reddit.
I really hope this leads to actual change. Subreddits are becoming meaningless to visit and frustrating for normal users, so hopefully they just stop using reddit altogether.

I thought i was logged onto the wrong account LOL
Same. I never subbed to pornographic subreddits, so when I saw a lady broadcasting her breasts on my front page, I had to do a double take. And then I made this post here xD
The sub is now /r/InterestANDFuck. I'm sure this is worse for Spez than the John Oliver sub changes, which I also approve of. Everyone knows advertisers love NSFW content being just out there for anybody to stumble upon.

I love how Mods Tell they are "forced" what is reddit gonna Do otherwise? Dont pay them?
Oh wait....
I do think if they open with malicious compliance, it’s better than if they open with moderators that wanna replace and wanna do their best to keep the sub going
