Yep. The FBI approached moot from the very beginning and he always complied. There was a whistleblower who claimed the FBI forced moot to let them take over moderation on /b/, and he provided some evidence for this, such as the fact that during the janitor applications, you can apply to be janitor for any board except /b/. And around 2015 (IIRC), there appeared tests with automated posts on /pol/, where it'd always be the same OP, and then later on someone would bring up Columbia. Censorship also increased over the years. Red flags abound.
