For as long as Reddit has been available there have been places that would scrape it and mirror deleted/edited comments. I don't remember what any of them are so people would use them all the time to figure out what someone said before they were banned.

There were also sites that you could put in a username and it would give you a pretty in depth summary of the person's location and facts about them.
