This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I joined r/duckduckgo on Reddit in order to excitedly share how dumping Google and making DuckDuckGo my primary browser, allowed my devices to stop stalling regularly.

I introduced myself to the other DuckDuckGo users with the provocative post, "I am here to share my tragic tale of how DuckDuckGo saved my life!"

I watched as the interest increased and the reading numbers swelled, but, then, u/KaiLung, a New Delhi hacker working for Amit Garg of gyanbooks.com, altered my account till I couldn't see any updated analytics. He has been violating me across multiple social media outlets for over a decade and works diligently to deny me free access to the internet!

I followed him from Twitter and landed on his favorite social media platform, Reddit. He recognized me and sent me a message and then erased it and began a new campaign to take over my then current devices.

Admittedly, I didn't read all of the r/duckduckgo rules and posted messages identifying him and explaining his tactics to the Reddit readers, thinking that revealing information on a miscreant was a fair game since I still had lots of proof that he was an online predator.

I had some privileged rare ebooks and he broke into my online account and stole the titles. The next day he had a fresh website up and running and was selling these. He changed my access to all social media platforms that I was curating and left mangled privileged online accounts behind.

On Reddit I began to share my experiences and he quickly blocked one account following another in order to escape being exposed! This state of affairs continued through 10 accounts. By dumping Google in favor of DuckDuckGo was the only reason why I was still online at all.

He hangs out in r/hacking and r/Hacking-Tutorials and is a prolific poster across the entire platform. He identified himself to others of his ilk as a black hat hacker who began hacking in 1997.

Employing a stratagem, he contacted you r/duckduckgo moderators with a view to getting me removed from a place of good-standing in r/duckduckgo since I was exposing him. I don't know what he said to you but it could have been false or misinformation.

He has placed himself on your moderating list as a white alien avatar with his back turned aside from view.  He points at me while using dozens of sockpuppets to spam and covertly market his personal products, something that he knows is not allowed on Reddit's platform. My account was u/Rich-Pin-3670 which featured "I am here to share my tragic tale of how DuckDuckGo saved my life." I then had to replace it with u/According_Box, when he changed all my accounts and associated email passwords.

Can I be restored to the r/DuckDuckGo community on Reddit? It is where I get to learn and keep current with the DuckDuckGo developers and like-minded redditors. Of course, u/KaiLung or any chosen sock puppet of the moment does not wish me to succeed. So far, he has requested that I be banned from every subreddit that I enjoy.

Here is a link to one of his scams that I had Reddit remove.

Claimed loss: Financial

Desired outcome: Restoration of r/duckduckgo account and that u/KaiLung be permanently removed from where he feels at home!
