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.
