They’ve nuked the modlist for r/tumblr too and opened it back up. Whomever they handed it to took it private again.

I don’t think protesting or creating backlash could change the behaviour of the mods (spez has been caught editing users comments before, for example). But I do think that angering redditors could ultimately be good, because they will start looking for other alternatives to Reddit.
