They've not taken the sub private but they have now put up a post supporting the protest and turning off all posting and commented. A bit half hearted maybe but better than nothing.
The Meta Plan:
Is u/spez a dick? Yes.
Did he used to mod r/jailbait? Not really. This happened back when any mod could auto add any other user as a mod without them having to self-approve. IIRC he removed himself not long after a screenie was taken and became aware it had happened.
Let's not dilute his actual assholery with fake assholery.
