The report comes after Reddit CEO Steve Huffman revealed in March that his company was cooperating with a congressional investigation into whether Reddit was a source of misinformation during the 2016 US election campaign. >Huffman said the vast majority of Russian-linked accounts banned had little to no clout on the network, according to the report, which noted that 70 percent had a zero rating on Reddit's karma scale -- how the site ranks the value of users' contributions. He also noted that several hundred accounts were banned before the 2016 election through routine Trust and Safety reviews.
