Reddit's Automated Systems Suppressed Active Missing Person Search for Sally Grace Contarino
⚠ Active Missing Persons Case: Sally Grace Contarino, 26, Australian tourist, last seen Las Vegas, USA. Reddit removed hundreds of thousands of views of public safety content without warning, human review, or explanation.
What Happened
On the night of 6 July 2026, the operator of u/DustPsychological666 — an independent creator and operator of the only dedicated missing persons website for Sally Grace Contarino — was subjected to a coordinated harassment and mass-reporting campaign on Reddit. Reddit's automated systems suspended the account and removed every post — with zero warning, zero notification, and zero email.
No human reviewed the decision. I was given no opportunity to respond. Reddit then locked my account and forced a password reset with no explanation.
