N-N-N-NIGGA WE MADE IT! (soulja boy voice)
Shout out to the other people that had no idea what the fuck they were talking about and just posted a thread for attention like me, and now Reddit was sent a subpoena to release our info, lol. I don't get it, everyone here on this subreddit knew I was joking, yet, they still come looking for me. LE, if you're reading this, yes, it was really a joke. I don't know shit. Honestly, you would have a better chance getting information by interrogating a pile of dirt.
It's sad because z-l and deepthroat put a lot more into their trolling attempts than I did. All I did was make up a fictitious female name (most popular female name in the country), and claim they had some interpersonal connection to Verto, saying I knew who they were. oh well.

For the lulz, here is the message that Reddit's legal team sent me (btw, Reddit is fucking awesome for actually letting me know about this beforehand, this is far more than any other website would ever do)
"reddit recently received a subpoena requesting information about your account. As our privacy policy states, we provide our users with advance notice when we are required to disclose their information due to legal process unless we receive a court order prohibiting that notice or we decide delayed notice is justified. We plan to disclose information about your account to the requesting law enforcement agency on March 30, 2015. If you would like a copy of the subpoena, please let us know. You may also wish to seek legal advice from private counsel or an organization such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation (https://www.eff.org/pages/legal-assistance).
thank you,
reddit legal"
