-Thank you for the update on the Canary Notice. It's appreciated.
-Rule Idea: Perhaps it should be a rule to have a maximum number of Voat accounts per IP address? A number that would allow multiple individuals to continue to post while on the same Wi-Fi, but low enough to help shut down CCP/spammers.
I think one account per IP or a limited number of accounts even is a little extreme. It might not be uncommon to have a "clean" account that you can tell friends, family, and employers about along with a porn account and a politics/general discussion account. Also college campuses could have thousands of users on a single IP as may VPN users who may also use their VPN's IPs to circumvent that rule (I think Private Internet Access for example has hundreds of thousands of IPs). Free proxies are another issue as they may be used to give a user more IPs or create a situation where multiple users are behind one IP.
