I'd withhold judgement on what actually happened until we have more information since we're basically just going off of a second-hand Twitter post. @doublepepperoni@hexbear.net
Perhaps that's what happened, but I'd hope we'd be used to the fact that people jump to conclusions, push misleading headlines, etc. all the time. There's adequate reason to think some CPC actor contacted the dev team, which is not that surprising with a mod that can be a "Taiwan defeats and balkanizes China" sim from the sound of it (among other things), but the Discord post does not even mention someone getting detained.
If we can't trust posts from admins who can we trust
