How Is Reddit Doing This?

[Anonymous]

I got banned from the DC Reddit sub almost two years ago because I posted that Biden was a sicko with kids in response to the repeated "Trump is a Nazi" posts.

Ever since then, every single account I create gets banned within a month or so, referencing, in detail (time, date, IP), the banning at the DC sub as cause. I've had literally a dozen accounts banned even though they were harmless ones created only to ask what place has the best BBQ in Austin, or what hotel I should book in Seattle. I don't even vist the DC sub but still I get zapped.

I have since moved homes and jobs so it isn't an IP ban and I regularly purge my history, cache, cookies etc, but it is the same laptop.

Did they plant something on this laptop that I'm unable to remove? Even when I use a VPN they ban me.

How are they doing this?

Browser fingerprinting.

Yes, let's explore the options so that Jeff can also ban you.

Have you tried installing different browser?

Good riddance.

Trump acting like a Nazi is a fair comparison based on facts. What you said is admittedly nothing more than an inflammatory partisan lie.

FAFO

What does that mean? I use Chrome but so do 50 million others.

Its an Identification Tracker called "10t"..or ID-10t. It happens to a lot of MAGA folks who continuously post on the internet.

If it's the same laptop, it could be the Mac address. Try making an account on your phone.

Who'd have guessed the IT forum would be filled TDS sufferers?

NP. So that is an "IDIOT" joke.

How about some factual ideas...

I'm interested in how cookies and tracking work.

Clear cookies. Ideally, use a different browser.

It's not the MAC address, since that is only visible on the local network.

Reddit is nuts. I would try deleting cookies for reddit off my computer.

Did you read the OP?

I'm sorry, OP, the punishment seems a bit harsh considering your crime.

Did you activate your ad-blocker and anti-tracing tools on your laptop?

If all else fails, maybe you want to reset your device to factory settings or buy a new device.
