Those dumbass mods at /r/piracy censoring the shit out of everyone to not post links and be uselessly vague to prevent from being taken down, and still get taken down even after all that stupid self censoring, is catharsis for me and ironic for them because it was useless to everyone that tried to look for help there since they deterred anyone from directly linking or name dropping sites or discord channels to locate piracy content. Even their wiki was dogshit useless.
So, good. Fuck them. They deserve it. Don’t self censor, don’t be vague, don’t discourage actual piracy. Which is what they did there. Fuck them. Fuck reddit.
I got banned from /r/Gaming years ago because in a thread about playstation emulation, I just mentioned what .BIN file is needed for the BIOS after someone asked, with a list of the files they were already looking at on a download site, because they were confused. They’re own rules explicitly state discussion of emulation is okay, but direct links are not.

I think the self-censoring was moreso out of concern for upsetting the Reddit admins than it was for companies like Nintendo.
Does your hypothesis change how you think about either of them?
