@Millennial_Falcon would you mind bringing some attention to this? I'm sorry to disturb you but this is important and with it being late in the US it could miss out on due notice.
Unfortunately I'm in Western Europe, so I didn't consider the time of posting relative to US users, just shocked that this happened yesterday and goes virtually unnoticed.
This also has the side effect of penalizing /v/pizzagate and Voat in general in Google Results due to their DMCA deranking policy. Only way to include /v/pizzagate directly in search results again is for someone who has access to the Voat domain directly to submit a counter-notice to Google stating that this subverse is not "copyrighted anime television broadcasts".
Otherwise, the page will be permanently deindexed and pages sharing a similar URL will be deranked, which is likely the desired result.
Thanks for your support and assistance in making this known, pretty sure this is an event approaching media attention levels.
Given its effect to voat.co I think you should bring attention to it in a general voat verse. Link back to this thread so users can see everything in context.

Will do, please feel free to link to it as well in any way you see fit (directly to archive URL's with your own context, thread, etc.)
It looks like there's a pattern as well, a law firm was hired in December 2016 to take down archives of "carisjames" and the well known to Pizzagate "ccwoolman" Instagram posts, which appears to be successful as well.
This appears to be bigger than I originally thought and probably a semi effective censorship tactic for making the details nearly impossible to find.

Interesting information. I linked to the thread from https://voat.co/v/pizzagatemods/1690858
