Well reddit most certainly would have a backup to restore from. Reddit does have control over their site, they will be able to do what they want.
What we can do is cause them image issues. Make them remove mods that have been making reddit work. Mods deleting users' data will make mods look bad and reddit reasonable to demote them and restore the sub.
Wow. Just sad. Too bad there isn’t a way to just delete a whole subreddit it seems. Would’ve been the best solution.
