Reddit Issues Final Warning to Subreddits Using NSFW Protest Tactic

Reddit has issued "final warnings" to subreddits that allowed NSFW content as a protest against the company's advertising business. The warnings threaten to remove volunteer moderators if the NSFW labeling is not corrected. NSFW subreddits are prohibited from serving ads according to Reddit's rules, which affects the platform's revenue. Some subreddits received similar warnings without the threat of moderator removal. Reddit has previously cracked down on subreddits allowing NSFW content. The warnings have caused some subreddits to stop operating as NSFW, while others argue that they are not in violation of the rules.
