Reddit is now censoring posts and communities on a country-by-country basis

Reddit's response:

> Here’s the full statement from Reddit, posted to r/ChillingEffects, about the ban:

> This week, Reddit received valid legal requests from Germany and Russia requesting the takedown of content that violated local law. As a result, /r/watchpeopledie was blocked from German IPs, and a post in /r/rudrugs was blocked from Russian IP’s in order to preserve the existence of reddit in those regions. We want to ensure our services are available to users everywhere, but if we receive a valid request from an authorised entity, we reserve the right to restrict content in a particular country. We will work to find ways to make this process more transparent and streamlined as Reddit continues to grow globally.

So pretty much any country can now get reddit to ban any sub that they think violates local law...
