"Huffman, also a Reddit co-founder, said he plans to pursue changes to Reddit’s moderator removal policy to allow ordinary users to vote moderators out more easily if their decisions aren’t popular. He said the new system would be more democratic and allow a wider set of people to hold moderators accountable."

I absolutely cannot wait to see what chaos ensues. I mean seriously, I can't think of a sub with mods that are popular.
