I would turf this thread, it doesn't benefit anyone and is more of a personal nature to you and your other Admin.

He's not wrong, though it has no effect on your users, deleting their account was silly. You're small potatoes to the copyright holders at this point, but abstracting your involvement by shifting servers out of the US (maybe swiss?) would be a good move.

You might take some direction from opensource project governance procedures, I'm not sure if they run under LLCs typically, but being considered opensource does get you away from some levels of responsibility for the actions of the people that use your platform.

IMO this site is about to get huge as reddit kills itself, could be wrong I just see some tea leaves, it doesn't matter now but might in the future where the MSM, the rich etc try to take this down if it doesn't censor tings like reddit did. But this should be a discussion magnora or whomever is involved has behind closed doors.

Unfortunately, I don't see Reddit dying off anytime soon. Instead, I think it's going to go the way of Facebook and just devolve into a platform where corporations promote/influence certain posts and the rest are silenced. The company site is just way too big and a lot of people stopped caring about the crap they do - just like with Facebook. Even with the whole scandal, literally every one of my friends still use the site daily.
