With the new Reddit policies, when a sub protests and goes private, could re-edit just step in, oust a moderator and switch it back to public?

A private community is not camped. It is active behind doors.

Is there any communication from Reddit actually saying that’s the basis of taking over subs? Or is it just speculation?

Correct, but the protesting subs were not active privately, that's the point. they were shut down. there wasn't activity going on in private.

Yes this is what they said in the modmail.

Have you got a link to see it?

The subs I was on were active.

Sounds like a bunch of excuses.

see this reddit thread. they've been sending threats/warnings like this to mods about removing higher up mods in order to re-open subs.
