    Reddit does IP bans and device fingerprinting for site-wide permabans. When they banned my main account - after I deleted all my comments/posts and then deleted my account mind you, they then undeleted it all so they could ban it - within an hour of signing in to an alt account that had never made a post/comment/upvote/etc, it was also permanently banned.

    It's not hard to get around these restrictions and use reddit if you do want to, but I don't want to.
