Controversies

In 2285, a viral image began to circulate on SolNet, Nimbus, and Kaleidoscope showing Hauk performing a Sieg Heil salute, a salute associated with the fascist regime of the German Reich. Several high-traffic posts sharing this image were removed and thousands of accounts that engaged with these posts were given 72-hour bans by the platforms they were on. Hauk was accused of contacting the owners of these social media companies directly in order to have these posts removed but a statement from SolNet claimed that these takedowns were "consistent with existing moderation policies and were not influenced by any third party."
