Following global pushes for age assurance by governments, Persona is increasingly being used by major online platforms to carry out biometric age checks.
I was just permabanned on 3 accounts for anti-ice/trump/pedo comments. 2 existing accounts were 10 years old. One was pretty much just for NSFW/NSFL stuff and I rarely commented on anything with.
One new one I made afterwards was permabanned within 5 hours for ban evasion.
Somehow I forgot I’d made one with “sign in with Apple” a while back and it was on my iPad.
That account still works fine.
How do they permaban you? By IP address? I can’t see how they could verify a new user being the same person as a old one. Email address is trivial to get around too.
I got permabanned a while ago. In the time since, I’ve moved to a new country and gotten all new devices. Made a new account with a new email address to try to join local subs in the new area.
That account was banned a couple hours later for ban evasion. I had made zero comments or posts and hadn’t joined any of my old subs. After that, I assumed they just have an AI that auto bans a chunk of new accounts “just in case”, because I genuinely have no idea what they could have done to connect the two accounts to each other.
lol jeez this Voyager app looks very much like Hydra Reddit app and I am very recently permabanned from Reddit for anti Trump/ICE/Pedo comments. I have the flu and am not thinking clearly about what app I was using.

I’m permaband from Reddit but I miss some local subs. I hope this encourages people to move away to something else.
how did you get permabanned?

It’s weird.
You are not alone.
There are dozens of us! DOZENS!
You can always come back from the dead just to torment your dictators.

They use several metrics to fingerprint you supposedly. I’m sure there’s a work around but I’m too fucking lazy for that when it comes to socials.
How are you still here then?
Lost Redditor? Welcome to Lemmy ;)
