Victoria Taylor, the human interface between many celebrities and the Reddit "Ask Me Anything" subreddit, was today unexpectedly let go from her position with Reddit. The nature of the dismissal is unclear, including whether or not it was initiated by Victoria herself. As a result of this action, a large number of popular and/or default subreddits have gone private, or have disabled story submissions.
See here for more updates:
TL;DR /r/IAmA, /r/AskReddit, /r/Books, /r/science, /r/Music, /r/gaming, /r/history, /r/Art, /r/videos, /r/gadgets, /r/todayilearned, /r/Documentaries, /r/LifeProTips, and /r/movies have all made themselves private in response to the removal of an administrator key to the AMA process, /u/chooter, but also due to underlying resentment against the admins for running the site poorly - being uncommunicative, and disregarding the thousands of moderators who keep the site running. In addition, /r/listentothis has disabled all submissions, and so has /r/picsand /r/Jokes has announced its support (but has not gone private). Major subreddits, including /r/4chan, /r/circlejerk and /r/ImGoingToHellForThis, have also expressed solidarity through going private.

That was basically the premise of her case against Kleiner Perkins [wikipedia.org]. It didn't work then either.
Climate change is real and primarily caused by human activity.
