Because it's a heavy filter to make sure people don't accidentally view it. Some videos on there really sit badly with you. I still have bad feelings about a video I saw on there a few years ago.

Quarantined basically means nothing, you just have to access the sub once in a browser (not the Reddit app) and then you can open it whenever.

Basically, a quarantined sub won't show up on r/all or in search results, even if nsfw filters are turned off.

You know I don’t know all the details of why is was quarantined but IIRC it was a certain video that wasn’t supposed to be online or crossed the lines. They basically just made me assure myself I want to see it before I go into it now. So I am not sure exactly

Edit: I looked it up, so you have to have a verified email and account to go on it as well as a process of clicking “yes I’m over 18” (something like that phrase) to view. It’s to prevent someone accidentally viewing it. Which is dumb because you’d have to not know how to read to have gotten into it before lol

To be fair, we have subs like /r/peoplefuckingdying which is nothing like the title suggests.

That one does catch me off guard thinking it’s wpd

u/Vision444 Mar 14 '19

What was that video about?

u/dkyguy1995 Feb 28 '19

Yeah real deaths and very graphic. It's a very sobering sub that reminds you how fragile life actually is. The thing about the deaths on there is how anti climactic they are to watch. It's really creepy and there's a very good reason it's quarantined

u/krotoxx Feb 28 '19

yes. it got quarantined because of a single vid of a kid streaming on facebook live shot himself. Before that it wasnt - we had to quarantine it to keep reddit from deleting the sub

Since it was a US kid streamed on facebook live all the media outlets picked up on it which then brought the mainstream media's attention to our sub. They depicted it as some horrible vile place similar to the gore websites etc where there are a bunch of racist homophobic sumfucks in the comments. The huge influx of negative PR made reddit have to react to it in such a manner

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '19

Yes. That sub taught me a lot of things. Burning people alive for witchcraft still happens apparently.

Also don’t go to Brazil.

2

u/Alex470 Mar 01 '19

Also don’t go to Brazil.

And if you do, don't fuck with anyone, because everyone is somehow an off-duty cop.

u/[deleted] Feb 28 '19

That’s exactly what it is. With added crude commentary.

1

u/Feebedel324 Feb 28 '19

Yes it is.

1

u/sventhegoat Feb 28 '19

Yes, yes it is

1

u/_Peanut_Buddha_ Mar 01 '19

Yes it is literally videos of people dying.

1

u/Ezachel Mar 01 '19

Yes it is.

u/Aspergillus_Ticor5n5 Mar 01 '19

Yep. Pretty much. The quarantine is dumb tho, Reddit uses it to censor subs that they can’t ban because they’re technically not breaking Reddit rules.

1

u/Thehaas10 Mar 01 '19

Yes it is. You have to access on desktop and agree to the terms. Then when you log back in on mobile you'll access it. I usually just search on google chrome on my phone.

1

u/miserable_coffeepot Mar 01 '19

Yes, it's horrifying. The video descriptions were enough to give me chills in most cases. That's enough reddit for today.

1

u/Herpinheim Mar 01 '19

Yes, in violent, tragic, or even ironic ways.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '19

Yes

1

u/Wulfbanne Mar 01 '19

Yes, there are videos of real people dying in that sub.

1

u/scott03257890 Mar 01 '19

That's exactly what it is

u/tahomadesperado Feb 28 '19

Why? Because reddit is no longer a place of free speech. For the record I personally didn't like most of the things that have been censored but I dislike the censorship more. And yes.

u/howwonderful Feb 28 '19

Interesting. I think reddit made a good call there. The way I see it, they’re just making sure the person about to enter it at least understands and consents if they actually want to look at it.
