Title is pretty much it. Woke up this morning to an email in the inbox with a reddit message notification from u/reddit

Your account has been permanently suspended for breaking the rules.

The thing is not only have I not been on reddit since the protest (barring google searches while not signed in on a private browser, for specific questions unfortunately), but it’s a lurker account. I have one post from a year ago asking a question, then a few sporadic comments with the last being in April.

I suppose the breakup with Reddit is a mutual thing now lol. Just a very strange scenario.

    Admins probably did a sloppy keyword recursive search going back a long time in scope. So a post of yours from a couple years ago said something about olives and they thought you were saying “John Oliver” for example, which is clearly grounds for a permaban. (sarcasm)
