Im digging for sauce but it's been memory holed... Going to keep digging as I recall making a voat post about it before the site went down but basically Media Matters & Share Blue were of course keeping tabs on troublesome social media profiles.
There was a very large pastebin doc leaked in I want to recall as Spring of 2018. In what appeared to be excel or an excel like formatting. The document listed tens of thousands of social media user names, email associated, then had internal metrics cells for other internal data.
It was pretty much anyone and everyone who was active on r/pizzagate r/spiritcooking r/cbts_stream r/greatawakening and a great number of r/the_donald and r/conspiracy users (and other banned/truther subs im forgetting).
There was viral coverage of this the week it happened. Reddit even had to save face by black listing Share Blue for a short time.
Of course, reddit, Twitter, et al were supplying this information. It's not like MM or SB had to "dig" and work to compile it.
Wait, what happened?

I’m not surprised tbh… I figured it had to exist sooner or later lol 🥲
