Has anyone noticed that 4Chan's rules have changed (somewhat drastically)? (www.4chan.org)

The most notable of which being "The 4chan moderation team reserves the right to revoke access and remove content for any reason without notice."

I noticed something fishy starting a few weeks ago. I kept getting 3 day bans, but with no reason listed and/or no link to the offending post.

So basically I was being banned because the mods wanted to ban me. This turned into a permanent ban, I presume because of the updated rules that I wasn't aware of.

You are not allowed to DISCUSS anything that violates US law. I was banned for mentioning that I was worried my neighbours are abusing their kid.

Permanently banned from 4Chan for this. I tried to appeal it but it was rejected.

Always saw 4Chan as a freedom of speech platform but looks like things are changing very quickly.

Honestly, I suspect it might also have something to do with the specific board and thread I would frequent. That kind of makes it all the more messed up. If I had known this would or could happen I would've just stopped going there. But now that I think about it, it's probably the reason I got permabanned, by some power tripping mod from there.
