Who is publicizing it? This is purely speculation by moderators who are not reddit employess.
- frogpelt 6y agoIf private message content is being moderated, it is not private.
- belltaco 6y agoModerators cannot see private message content.
- goatinaboat 6y agoModerators cannot see private message content. Maybe ordinary mods but Reddit employees?
- Quillbert182 6y agoYes, that's right.
- shagie 6y agoSome Reddit employees certainly can see message content. This shows up in /r/redditrequest . Some times the system will flag a request for manual review. In that case, the following message is in the request: > Thanks for submitting this request! It’s been flagged for manual review (not a bad thing!). This might delay a decision by a couple weeks. In the meantime, please politely message the moderators of r/whatever and reply to this comment with a link to that message. Only you, the mods of r/whatever, and some admins will be able to view the message content. Including a link to this message will help speed the process along.
- dmux 6y agoI believe that's why some platforms have started using "Direct Message" (i.e. "DM me") instead of the older Private Message terminology.
