Oh, it wasn't for free.

Awkwardtheturtle is supposedly the Digital Marketing Manager, Assistant Director of Web Services, Digital Communications Specialist, and Digital Media Strategist in the Innovative Learning Technology Initiative, all operated from within the University of Southern California. Most of their work consists of creating media strategies for pharmaceutical companies. They have a constant Slack channel with direct access to the admins at all times and regularly met with the admins in person. From their qualifications, they likely provided Reddit media strategies.

They still have some of their numerous alts online, which they're currently being outed.

Worth noting that the subs their alt manages aren't participating in the blackout. Curious that.
