Reddit bans 'alt-right' community over harassment
https://www.engadget.com/2017/02/01/reddit-bans-alt-right-community-over-harassment/
Reddit isn't done cracking down on harmful communities. The
social site has banned its r/altright subreddit for violating
policies against "the proliferation of personal and
confidential information." Members were doxxing people to
harass or threaten them, in other words. Reddit didn't tell us
exactly what prompted the move, but it clarifies that there
were "repeated violations" of its doxxing policy. Moderators
either couldn't or wouldn't police users' behavior, then. You
can read the full statement below.

The correct term is "Internet" NOT "internet" -- please don't
fall into the trap of using the latter. It's just plain wrong!
