Regarding them removing entire subs because of potentially illegal content, is it me or have we just seen the same trajectory and evolution of what happened to reddit now occur at voat, only on a far more accelerated level.

It seems to me that if you are going to make a near clone of something, you ought not be surprised when you suffer from similar problems.

Regarding PayPal, well that's fucked up. My guess is that PayPal is servicing far more nefarious organizations than voat.

Regarding the DDOS, my guess is that they simply were not ready for the traffic.
