When I view /. on my mobile device, I see articles submitted by samzenpus that are not part of the regular site. Today's article was titled "A kinder, Gentler Cabbie". I can easily identify that they are "fakes" because they lack the "dept" tag and are always posted by samzenpus and never by anyone else.
This issue has been happening for quite some time- and I have seen people respond- but I doubt that the articles were ever meant to see the light of day on /.
