So many of these are non - examples; any discussions involving encouraging brigading / trolling were taken down by the mods. And cross-posting content is not against the rules in any way, nor does it qualify for harassment or posting personal info. If you put something on the internet, you have to accept the fact that people might make fun of you

But the people who host the content don't. That's all there is to it.

I agree that people might reasonably "expect" it, but nobody has to tolerate it. And in my view, nobody should. "Free expression" is not an entitlement in the private sphere, and it does not shield anyone from having their ass handed to them if they abuse it.

Reminder: reddit owes neither you, me, nor anybody else anything whatsoever.

Can confirm. Mods were anal about personal information being posted. Users would get banned if they did that. Plus, any linking to any part of reddit was removed by automod.
