Seems that someone at Reddit decided to grant read access to RIF, this morning I opened the app just for kicks and it wouldn’t load anything. Well I tried again after lunch (Europe CET time) and it could access the front page but I was logged out. Trying to login shows a different logon page and even with valid credentials gives out a ‘Bad request’ response.
That means they are not just feeling the heat, they are probably burning really bad.
Thanks for posting this! I opened RIF this morning to see what would happen and I was surprised to see that it seems to still work (I didn’t try logging in). I hope it’s what you described and not some kind of mistake that’s going to cost RIF millions of dollars!
