Possibly, but they’d either have to find new volunteers to manage some of the largest subreddits completely unpaid, or start hiring moderators.
It won’t be hard for them to find some mods (who didn’t participate) who would jump at the opportunity at the perceived clout and authority they’d get from running a high profile sub.
Is there any possibility we could get someone to infiltrate a possible new group of moderators? I think it would be tough to do unless they had maintained a very polite profile and were very good at opsec, but we’ve already had discussions in this community about the possibilities to infiltrate existing reddit subs.
What would they do when they get in though? If they do anything unfriendly to advertisers they’ll get removed from the position
