you're basically saying that unless a person has enough money to hire an attorney to make you do work their stolen nude pictures are fair game.
We as a society (wider than reddit) have decided this. Not the reddit team.
The reddit team are abiding by both the spirit and the word of the law. You should both prove the content is to be taken down, and then make a legal request to do so.
The fact that we, as a society, have decided that to be allowed any kind of legal protection requires vast amount of funding, even if you are innocent/the injured, is not something the reddit admins themselves can change.
[ninja-edit] I'd be interested in knowing why the downvotes here? Just pointing out a fact about our legal system. Is it because inwardly you hate that this is true and you're taking it out on me? Fair game. Comment and discuss.

The entire point of their blog post is that they 'did the right thing' or whatever by banning that sub.
If they want to continue doing the right thing, particularly in the spirit of this post which included a nice sentence about family until it was edited out and the blog post - they should do their best to prevent the victimization of people who have had their nude pictures stolen and exploited.
And, yes, access to legal services and resources is an enormous problem. It's good you identified that.
